Amchur, or dried mango powder, gives food a bright, fruity sourness without adding liquid. That makes it perfect for dry dishes, where lemon juice or tomatoes would make things soggy.
Where it works best
- Fruit chaat and corn chaat
- Dry sabzis such as bhindi, aloo or arbi
- Spice rubs for tikkas and roasted vegetables
- Homemade chaat masala blends
How much to use
Amchur is strong, so start small. Half a teaspoon is usually enough for a dish serving two to three people. Add it towards the end of cooking so the flavour stays bright.
