Description
Amchoor or Amchur, also known as “mango powder”, is made from unripe green mangoes and is widely used in Indian and South East Asian cuisine for its sweet and sour, tangy flavour. Often used as souring agent in marinades and as a tenderiser it can also be used as a substitute for lemon juice but unlike fruit juice, it does not add moisture to your dish.
Use it in curries, soups, chutneys, pickles, somosa and pakora fillings, lentil dishes, rubbed onto fish or chicken before baking or sprinkled onto fruit salad and compotes for a touch of citrusy freshness. Amchoor is best used towards the end of cooking to retain its sweet and sour flavour.
