The Secret to Tangy, Mouth-Watering Flavour

Discover the magic of Amchur, a cornerstone of Indian cooking that adds a burst of tangy brilliance to dishes. This unique powder is made by drying and grinding unripe green mangoes, capturing their intense tartness and a hint of tropical fruit flavour. Unlike lemon juice or vinegar, amchur adds a complex acidity without making food wet, making it ideal for sprinkling on snacks and balancing rich, spicy curries.

It is the secret ingredient that brings a refreshing, mouth-watering quality to food, cutting through richness and adding a layer of fruity sharpness that is utterly addictive.

Why Choose Our Mango Powder (Amchur)?

Natural Souring Agent: Provides a clean, tangy acidity that enhances other spices without the liquid of citrus or vinegar.

Unique Fruity Tang: Offers a more complex, slightly sweet sourness compared to other acidic ingredients.

Dry & Versatile: The powder form makes it perfect for sprinkling on dry snacks, blending into masalas, and adding to dry rubs.

100% Pure & Natural: Contains nothing but dried, ground green mangoes. No additives, colours, or preservatives.

Culinary Inspiration: How to Use Mango Powder

Unlock a world of tangy flavour:

Curries & Dals: A key souring agent in North Indian curries like chana masala, sambar, and lentil dishes (dal).

Snack Seasoning: The classic tangy sprinkle on Indian street food snacks like chaat, pakoras, and samosas.

Chutneys & Dips: Add a pinch to fruit chutneys, raita, or yogurt-based dips for a tangy kick.

Marinades & Rubs: Use in dry rubs for meats like chicken and fish to tenderize and add a fruity acidity.

Spice Blends: An essential component in chaat masala and other tangy spice mixes.

How to Use: Add towards the end of the cooking process to preserve its bright, fresh acidity. Start with ½ teaspoon for a dish serving 4-6 people and adjust to taste.

Storage: Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place to protect its tangy potency.
