Aam Papad

Aam papad black, also known as black mango leather, is made from ripe mango pulp. Here is a general recipe for making black aam papad:

Aam Papad Ingredients:

  • 1 kg ripe mangoes
  • 500 g sugar
  • 1 tsp cardamom powder
  • 1/4 tsp edible black food color
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. Wash the mangoes and peel off the skin. Remove the pulp from the mangoes and mash it well.
  2. Take a deep bottomed pan and add the mashed mango pulp and sugar to it.
  3. Cook the mixture on low heat until it thickens and starts to leave the sides of the pan. Stir it continuously to prevent it from sticking to the bottom.
  4. Once the mixture thickens, add cardamom powder, black food color, and salt to it. Mix it well.
  5. Grease a flat plate or tray with a little bit of oil. Pour the thickened mango mixture onto the greased plate and spread it evenly.
  6. Place the plate in a sunny spot and let it dry for 2-3 days, until the mixture becomes completely dry and firm.
  7. Once the mixture is completely dry, cut it into desired shapes using a knife or a cookie cutter.
  8. Store the black aam papad in an airtight container and keep it in a cool and dry place.

Note: The recipe may vary slightly depending on the region and personal preferences.
