Lifestyle Desk – During the summer season, there is a glut of mangoes all over the market. This is a fruit for which everyone eagerly waits throughout the year. Not only do you enjoy eating it as a fruit, many delicious desserts are also made from it and one of them is Aam Papad. Whose sour, sweet and tangy taste makes everyone crazy. But, as difficult as it may seem to make mango papad at home, it is actually very easy and most importantly, it is also healthy because you can make it as per your choice without sugar and preservatives. So let us know the recipe of making mango papad at home.
Material
Ripe mangoes – 3-4 (sweet and juicy)
Sugar – 2-3 tbsp (depending on sweetness of mango)
Lemon juice – 1 tsp
Cardamom powder – a pinch
Method
- First of all, wash the mango, peel it and take out the pulp. Now put it in the mixer and make a smooth puree.
- Add mango puree in a pan and cook on low flame for 10-15 minutes. Keep stirring in between so that it does not stick.
- Now add sugar, lemon juice and cardamom powder and mix well. Cook it until the mixture becomes slightly thick.
- Grease a plate or tray with ghee or spread butter paper. Now spread the mango mixture in a thin layer.
- Dry it in strong sunlight for 1–2 days. If there is no sunlight, you can dry it under a fan or in the oven (low temperature). When it dries completely and is no longer sticky, cut it into desired shapes.
tips
- The sweeter the mangoes are, the less sugar will have to be added.
- Do not keep the layer too thick, otherwise it will take more time to dry.
- If you want, you can increase the sweet-sour taste by adding a little black salt or chili powder to it.
