  5. Simmer and Thicken:
    • Transfer the mixture to a casserole.
    • Cover and simmer on low heat for about 15-20 minutes, or until the mango pieces are tender and the sauce thickens to a chutney-like consistency.
  6. Adjust and Finish:
    • Taste and adjust the sweetness or salt if needed. Add more jaggery if you prefer it sweeter.
    • Once the desired consistency is reached, remove from heat.
  7. Serve:
    • Allow the Kacche Aam ki Launji to cool to room temperature.
