Aamras is a popular mango recipe that you will find in most Indian homes during summer season. It is rich, pulpy mango juice prepared by generations and served with pooris.
Peel the mangoes, remove the stone and chop them. Add to the blender along with sugar, saffron, water and dry ginger powder.
Blend it till you get smooth puree.
Now add dry fruits.
And mix it well. serve chilled.
Notes
Sugar quantity is depending on the mangoes. If your mangoes are sour then you need more sugar. If mangoes are sweet then you need less sugar or sometimes no sugar. I have not added any sugar because the fruit was sweet enough to our taste.
Milk or water– I usually do not add milk. You can use milk instead of water. Specially Maharashtra, people use milk in aamras.Addition of milk/water is up to your liking. If adding milk please careful not to thin out too much that it becomes drink.
Shelf life – it can be kept in refrigerator in air tight container up to a week. You can freeze it in 1 serving portions and enjoy them any time of the year when mangoes are not in season.
Serving suggestion – Best served with poori or roti.
