Kairi Pachadi is a sweet and sour dish from the NKGSB cuisine of Karwar. It is a quick and easy dish to prepare and goes very well with rice and curries. The NKGSB cuisine of Karwar uses a lot of fresh coconut and jaggery in the daily cooking. The dishes vary, but the base i.e. coconut is the same.

Raw mango and jaggery form a terrific combination in regards to taste as well as nutrition. Raw mango is high in Vit C and jaggery provides with iron. But, it is the Vit C which helps our body to absorb the iron into our system. That’s the reason maybe, that our traditional foods always had something rich in Vit C in our foods, like tamarind, kokum, curds, solaa, etc. This, this pachadi being oil free too, surely scores high on the health quotient!
