DISH NAME : DRY MANGO POWDER (AAMCHOOR)

| HOME MADE DRY MANGO POWDER | ||
| 1.5 Kg. | Mangoes, raw | |
Method
1) Peel the skin of the mangoes.
2) With a peeler peel the flesh of the mangoes. This will give thin strips which will dry the mangoes faster. Or you can slice in a slicer. Grating is not a good option as the juice of the mangoes, which gives the tanginess will be lost in the process.
3) Dry mangoes in sun, ensuring not a drop of water falls into the mangoes. Sun them during day time, take them indoors in the evening and cover with a net or wire mesh. Mangoes should breathe. Or it will rot.
4) This process will take a few days, around 5 to 7 days.
5) When thoroughly dried powder and store in airtight glass jars.
