ambavadi:

Aam papad is an Indian fruit leather made out of mango pulp mixed with concentrated
sugar solution and sun dried. It is also known as aamba sadhaa (Odia), Aamta
(Assamese), amawat (Hindi), Maanga Thera (Malayalam), mamidi tandra (Telugu),
aamsotto (Bengali) and amba vadi (Marathi).

Traditional Aam Papad is sweet, although it is available in different varieties. It


can be preserved for months making it popular in the off season of mangoes.

Preparation
Mango pulp is mixed with potassium metabisulfite and spread on trays to dry in the
sun. After the first layer dries, another layer is spread over it and allowed to
dry. The process is repeated until the desired thickness is reached. The thickness
varies depending upon the quality of mango pulp used. When this thickness is
reached the aam papad is cut into pieces and wrapped in oiled paper or into
different packages.

Aam Papad can be consumed in any season as it can be preserved for a long period of
time.
