Heat oil in a pot and add whole grain jira seeds, letting them cook in the oil.

Chop garlic and shadow beni (cilantro) in a mini chopper.

Add chopped hot peppers to the pot, adjusting quantity for spice preference, and sauté until golden brown.

Add frozen mango pieces to the pot and season with salt and brown sugar, stirring to coat the mango with the oil and seasonings.

Add masala curry powder to the pot and stir well; cover and cook on low heat, stirring occasionally.

As the mango cooks, it will release liquid; pour it back into the pot and continue cooking.

After some time, check the mango; it should be soft and cooked. Use a spoon to slightly mash the mango pieces, allowing the juices to thicken.

Adjust the sauce to your liking; add more or let it dry out based on preference.

Sprinkle additional garlic and green seasoning (bandanna) before serving.
