Murabba or "morabba" is an Arabic word meaning to preserve. This versatile murabba is made of finely chopped raw mangoes cooked in thick sugar syrup and spiced with sambhaar. Chop the mango pieces evenly so that they cook well in the sugar syrup and also look attractive. Enjoy this pickle with hot rotis or a spicy vegetable.
