Aamras Recipe (Aamras Puri)
Aamras, also known as mango puree or mango pulp dessert, is a rich and refreshing Indian summer treat made with ripe, juicy mangoes. This traditional sweet dish is especially popular in Maharashtrian and Gujarati households during mango season. To prepare this easy aamras recipe, ripe mangoes are peeled, chopped, and blended into a smooth pulp- often flavored with cardamom, saffron, or a touch of ghee. Some people add a little milk or water to adjust the consistency, making it creamier and more pourable.Best served chilled, aamras pairs wonderfully with hot puris or can be enjoyed as a simple, cooling mango sweet. If you’re craving a quick mango dessert or a no-cook mango recipe, aamras is a must-try.
Equipment
Blender
Ingredients
- 1 large Ripe Sweet Mango peeled and cubed
- 3 tablespoon Sugar or adjust
- 2 no Cardamom crushed
- ½ teaspoon Dry Ginger Powder Chukku Podi
- ¼ cup Water or Milk optional
Instructions
- Take sugar and cardamom in a blender and powder them. Add in mangoes and puree till smooth. Now add in dry ginger powder and give one more pulse.
- Add water or milk if needed while grinding. Serve with poori or as it is in a bowl.
Notes
- Mangoes vary in sweetness. Taste before adding sugar- you might not need it at all.
- After blending, strain the aamras to remove any fibers or lumps. It makes a huge difference in texture.
- Aamras tastes best when it’s cold. Refrigerate it for at least an hour before serving for the most refreshing experience.
- A pinch of cardamom or dry ginger goes a long way. Too much can overpower the delicate mango flavor.
- If you’re short on time, throw in a few ice cubes while blending to get that cold, slushy effect immediately.
- Aamras actually tastes better after resting a bit. The flavors meld beautifully after a few hours in the fridge.
- Use Glass or Ceramic Containers for Storage.
