Aam Panna Recipe
Aam Panna is a delightful summer drink prepared from green mangoes. It is so refreshing with the sweet and tangy flavors. It is the best summer cooler, a great way to hydrate in the hot summer weather.
Ingredients
- 2 Mango unripe dark green mangoes, green
- 2 cups water
- 2 cup sugar or jaggery
- 1 teaspoon cardamom powder aka Elaichi
- 2 teaspoon black salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder roasted
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- mint for garnish, leaves
Instructions
Cooking Green Mangoes
- Rinse the green mangoes in water.
- Add water to the instant pot, place mangoes in it, and pressure cook on high for 8 minutes (or for 3 whistles in a stovetop pressure cooker)
- When the instant pot beeps, quick release the pressure manually. Let the mangoes cool down.
- Strain and save the pressure cooked water for later.
Aam Panna Concentrate
- Once mangoes are cooled down, peel the skin and take out the pulp. Using a spoon, scoop out the pulp, scrape the pulp from the side of the seed and save all the pulp. Discard the seed and skin.
- In a blender, add mango pulp, sugar, cardamom powder, black salt, cumin powder, black pepper, and blend it until smooth.
- Aam panna concentrate is ready.
Making Aam Panna
- In a glass add ice cubes, 3 tablespoons of Aam Panna concentrate, and add water that was saved or chilled water. Mix it well.
- Garnish with mint leaves and serve.
Notes
- Mangoes: Fibrous mangoes should be avoided. Use unripe tart mangoes.
- Roasted Aam Panna: I have shown the method to boil the mangoes in the recipe. Some preparations roast the mangoes on an open flame which adds a wonderful smoky flavor to the drink. You can roast the mangoes on the open flame on a stove or a grill. You can also roast in an air fryer or oven.
- Straining: You can strain the Aam ka Panna mixture through a fine-mesh strainer to keep the green mango fibers out of your tongue.
- Storing: In an airtight container, Aam ka Panna will keep for a week in the refrigerator. You can also freeze the Aam Panna concentrate for up to 3 months.
