Kolambo

Thanks so much for this recipe!

This was one of my favorite dishes as a kid and I used to fondly refer to it as "Kolambo". I could sit for an hour sucking on the gravy soaked "katho" (mango seed). I dont think ghontambo is available in the US, but this will be a must do for my next summer trip to India!
