Moovandan Mampazham | മൂവാണ്ടൻ മാമ്പഴം - Details

Description

Semi Ripen
Yet another common mango of Kerala, Moovandan is deeply linked with Kerala culture too. It takes only three years for its tree to blossom. That’s why this mango variety got this name (‘Moonnu’ means three and ‘Aand’ means year). They grow as branches and filled with leaves. They show a moderate amount of sour, fiber, and sweetness in fruits, and can also be used to prepare dishes. They can be used as Kanni Maanga (small types used for pickles and kondattam), green mango to prepare pickles, and many vegetarian/non-vegetarian dishes and as fruit. Moovandan grows in any condition and varieties such as blue (neela moovandan), black (karutha moovandan) and white (velutha moovandan) are available.
