Aam Papad : Delicious Mango Snack
Aam Papad is a delicious snack made of mango pulp and sugar. It is one of the ways to enjoy mango fruit taste around the year.
It is very easy to make and can be prepared at home easily. It is prepared in most of the Indian households.
Ingredients
- Mango of any type, I used totapuri mangoes here
- Sugar
- Cardamon or saffron for flavour (optional)
Procedure
- Wash mangoes thoroughly and peal them. Remove seed and collect the pulp. Add 1.5 cup of sugar for 4 cups of mango pulp and blend in a mixer to make a smooth puree.
- Grease the trays with sufficient oil and pour the puree to about 3 mm layer.
- Keep in direct sunlight for 1-2 days then flip, again keep in sunlight and let it dry completely.
- Cut into desired shape and store in a tightly closed container to enjoy this delicious mango snack around the year.

Delicious, in small quantities.
I like very much the Aam Papad. It is very tasty, just like the mango.
Good idea @chetanpadliya I love mango and will try this out this week - thank you for sharing
Very delicious! :)
I understand that sugar has the role of a preservative here? And we have to add it?
Yes true, sugar works as a preservative as well as makes it delicious and soft.
we make this by spreading the pulp on a new mat and drying in sun. we repeat spreading pulp for about four days till it becomes thick and then cut it in strips and store it.
wow thanks for the recipe. It doens't look healhy but it looks yummy!! I like the idea of mixing with cardamom!
Yes, it has high sugar content but delicious.
I loooove this so much! But for me it's not very useful and not very sustainable to make this myself. Mangoes don't grow in this area, they come a long way and are relatively expensive. I prefer to eat them fresh and buy the "fruit leather" made of Mangoes somewhere else. The arabic version is called something like Qumreddin and is made from apricots. I think it's a delicious way to preserve fruits while there are too much available to eat them all all the same time. Nice entry!
i ate aam papad some days ago in chintapurni
It looks delicious that dessert, in my country Venezuela, similar preparations are also made with that wonderful fruit, as is the mango.
