Egg Curry with Green Mangoes( Mutta Manga Curry)

Overview
The sour taste from the fresh green mangoes gives a tangy taste to this egg curry which is very unique. This is a very common dish my mom used to make. The sweetness from fresh coconut milk and the aroma of ginger adds flavor to this dish. This is a typical Kerala dish fresh fish can be used in place of hard boiled eggs too.
