Mango sheera | Mango Kesari in two ways
Written by Jayashree

Mango Kesari or Mango Sheera is a delicious dessert made using semolina and mango puree. It is a good way to use some mangoes for cooking.

It’s the season of mangoes, time to indulge and try recipes with it. Sheera or rawa kesari is often made in all homes. Do give a try with mango, it’s tasty. Mango Sheera is soft and smooth pudding like sweet delicacy made with mango pulp and semolina. Here I am sharing two kind of recipes, one is using sugar andd the other with jaggery. Earlier, I used to make with sugar. Presently we are using a little bit more of jaggery, so I have made with jaggery now.

The importance of kesari in Indian cuisine:

Rava Kesari is one of the sweets commonly prepared in Indian tradition. Any good occassion, starts with a Satyanarauyan pooja and it is the the kesari which is prepared with banana in it. You have sudden guests at home and the only thing thats pops up in our mind is a good rava kesari. Upma and Kesari is the combination found in most restaurants.

So So delicious and tempting. Sheera is an absolute fav at home and I make it with bananas and nuts during the year but when its summers, it has to be mango, just like you have done. Also, we can always control the amount of sugar when its home made as the pulp lends a sweet taste. Looking at your post, I am now waiting for the fresh batch of mangoes to arrive for making some recipes soon.
