  2. The quantity of grated mangoes should be usually be half of the rice volume.
  3. During the off mango season, you can even use raw mango powder ( amchur powder ) and prepare this rice.
  4.  Using Coconut oil is best for this rice but however if you wish to refrain from it, then you may use any oil of your choice. 
  5. Add half tsp of sugar if the mangoes are too tangy.
