Kairee Panha recipe _______________________________________________ 

Pressure cook 2-3 raw mangoes. Cool, remove the skin and the seed if it is hard. Add about 1 cup sugar or jaggery (proportion to suit your taste) to the mango pulp. Use a blender or food processor to homogenize the pulp. Preserve this stock in the refrigerator and use it as and when required.

In a glass add 1-2 tbsps (depending on the tartness of the mangoes) of the Panha pulp. Dilute with cold water and refresh yourself with this wonderful and healthy summer cooler!

    Hey, my neighbors used to make this often. They put some kind of masala to it. Kali namak or something like that, I will find out about that. It is the best thirst quencher during summer.
    @ Thanks Lata. I agree, it is the best quencher.
