Mango!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hmmmmm yum isnt it!!!!!!!!!

I love mangoes like mad so my mom uses to make homemade aam papad for me so I can relish them when the season of mangoes is gone….this is how she use to make it.

mango pulp extracted from mangoes, either squeeze it out or peel the outer cover and chop to pieces and put in a mixer to get a fine paste.

then add sugar and little jaifal/ nutmeg powder to it…..you may think why to add sugar if mango is sweet but yes its required else the aam poli/ papad will turn black and also sugar acts as a preservative so the poli lasts longer…..

and then pour the pulp on a little-oiled plate and keep it in sun for at least 2 days until it is properly dried.

here the aam roti is ready to consume, keep it in an airtight container and eat as required…
