INSTRUCTIONS
1. rinse and wipe dry the mangoes.
then peel them.
2. grate or shred the mangoes.
3. in a pan take the grated or
shredded mangoes along with sugar and ¼ tsp salt. addition of sugar depends
upon the tartness of the mangoes and your taste. i added 1.5 cups sugar. you
can also add powdered jaggery instead of sugar. i used organic unrefined cane
sugar.
4. switch on the flame. stir this
sugar+mango mixture very well.
5. on a low flame or sim, cook this
mixture. initially the sugar will melt and consistency will be watery. stir
often so that the sugar does not crystallize and keep on simmering the mixture.
6. when the sugar syrup will start
to cook, you will see the mixture bubbling .
7. keep on stirring and cooking.
8. the mixture will begin to
thicken.
9. when the consistency of the sugar
reaches a 2 thread consistency. switch off the flame. if you cook more, then
the chunda gets a thick sticky hard consistency. the consistency should be like
a jam consistency and look translucent. there should also be a slight crunch in
the mangoes.
10. lastly add ½ tsp red chili powder
and ½ tsp roasted cumin powder. you can also more red chili powder if you want.
11. mix very well. cool aam ka chunda
completely.

in a clean sterilized glass jar or bottle.

condiment with a north indian meal or you can also have it with chapatis or
rotis.
