Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups Mango Puree
  • 1 cup Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Choose ripe mangoes. Wash them well, dry with kitchen towel. Peel off skin and chop the flesh into chunks. Take the mango flesh in a blender and grind to a smooth puree without adding any water.
  • Take mango pulp in a kadai. Heat them and bring it to a full boil, let the excess water evaporate from the mango pulp.
  • Add sugar and cook till thickens. It will take around 20 to 30 minutes for the mango puree to thicken. Once the mango pulp has thickened we can spread on tray to dry.
  • Depending on the thickness you need, you can divide it between multiple trays. Grease a tray with oil. Pour the mango puree on the tray and spread evenly. Cover with mesh cover. Dry in sun for 2 days. You can dry it under fan for 3 to 4 days too.
  • To check whether the mango has dried, the colour should darken. Touch the top, it should feel dry and nonstick. Once the mango has dried, you can un-mould and cut it into pieces.
  • Store in an air tight container and enjoy.
