    Aamras is a famous mango based sweet or dessert often served with puffed puris. Prepared by pureeing mango pulp, sugar, and cardamom. Here is how to make it in 5 minutes with few ingredients.

    Basically it is a flavored mango pulp and often served with pooris (a deep-fried Indian flatbread), during the summer season. Here are few more mango recipes, Mango lassi, Mango Salsa, Mango Raita & Eggless Mango Semolina Cake.

    aamras is served in small glasses, garnished with chopped nuts

    We eat it with chana dal paratha and ajwain paratha or ajwain pooris/puris. But most of the time it was namak ajwain paratha instead of poori to save few calories.

    You can find a number of ways to make aamras and enjoyed it with puri. In North India, my family uses black salt, cumin seed powder and salt in mango pulp.

    • You can replace sugar with honey or stevia.
    What mangoes are best for making it?

    Ripe and nonfibrous mangoes are best to make aamras. In India Alphonso, Kesar, Hapus, Safeda, Banganapali, Dussehri, are the mango variety that can be used to make it.
    In USA Ataulfo aka champagne, mangoes are great to make mango recipes.

    How to make it from canned mango pulp?

    Use 1 cup of canned mango pulp in place of 1 cup of mango pieces. Normally canned pulp does not contain any sugar and it is thick. Add cardamom powder and sugar as per taste. Adjust thickness by adding milk. Adding milk is optional.

    Using readymade canned pulp is a great option for making aamras. You can make it anytime during the year.

    How to make it without milk?

    Mix cardamom powder and sugar with mango pulp. Blend it well and serve chilled. Milk normally added to thin down the puree.

    Can we make without blender?

    In old days, aamras was always made using hands, without blender. That time owning blender was a great deal.

    First of all, extract the mango pulp by squeezing the mango with your palms. Discard the seed and strain the pulp using a mash. Add powdered sugar and cardamom, whisk it till everything combined well.

    Add milk if required to thin down, else you can eliminate it. Serve chilled.

    Can you make aamras with frozen mangoes?

    You can easily make aamras with frozen mangoes. Just take the quantity required to make aamras, and thaw it. Once they are soft enough, blend with other ingredients and make aamras.

      I've always loved just about anything made with mangoes. It's one of my favorite fruits. But when you add the cardmom, that really tasted amazing. I had not tried the two flavors together before, and it was just delicious!
