The mangoes that I had cut yesterday were not completely ripe and sweet. It was little sour and crunchy to bite. It was just perfect to make chutney or salsa.
Initially I thought of making paratha and spicy and sweet mango chutney. Then I got this idea of making tortilla wraps and salsa with mango. My kids were very thrilled as I made a Mexican dish after a very long time.
Healthy and wholesome tortillas with sweet and sour, refreshing mango salsa was a perfect breakfast for a bright summer day:)

For the Tortillas
Whole wheat flour – 1 cup
Maize flour ( makkai atta/ chola maavu )- 1/2 cup
Salt to taste
Warm water as required
For the Mango salsa
Chopped onions – 1 cup
Chopped green capsicum – 1 cup
Chopped mangoes – 2 cups

Method
For the Tortillas
In a big bowl, add the whole wheat flour, corn flour and salt. Mix well. Add required amount of warm water and knead to a smooth dough. Let it rest for 15-20 mins.
Divide the dough into 8 portions. Take one portion and roll into a smooth ball.
Flatten it gently. Dust liberally and roll into uniform circle.
Cook on a hot tawa on both sides till brown spots appear.
Make all the tortillas similarly and keep it aside.
For Mango Salsa
Heat oil in a pan. To the hot oil, add chopped onions. Sauté till it turns pale. Add the chopped capsicum, red chilli flakes and salt to taste. Mix well and sauté again till the capsicum turns tender( ensure that its not over cooked).
Take off the gas and add the chopped mangoes. Mix well. Check for the seasonings. Add the chopped coriander leaves and mix it well.
To make the wraps
Place a tortilla on a plate. Keep a spoon full of filling on one side of the tortilla. Roll it up tightly. Similarly make the rest of them.
