Ingredients
  

  • 2 Raw Mangoes (green mango)
  • 1 ¼ Cup Water
  • 1 ½ Teaspoon Rock Salt
  • 1 ½ Teaspoon Jeera Powder
  • ½ cup Sugar
  • 1 Green Chilli
  • ¾ cup Mint Leaves

Method
 

  1. Wash the raw mangoes thoroughly and pressure cook them with 1 ¼ cup of water until soft (2-3 whistles). Let them cool completely.
  2. Once cooled, peel the mangoes and extract all the pulp. Discard the skin and seed.
  3. In a blender, combine the mango pulp, rock salt, jeera powder, sugar, green chilli, and mint leaves. Blend until completely smooth.
  4. Add water as required, about ¼ to ½ cup, to achieve a pourable consistency, similar to a thick juice. Taste and adjust sweetness or spice if needed.
  5. Pour the Aam Panna mixture into popsicle molds. Insert popsicle sticks.
  6. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid. To unmold, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds.

Notes

- For extra flavor, toast the jeera (cumin) seeds lightly before grinding them into powder. This deepens the spice notes.
- If you prefer a less spicy popsicle, remove the seeds from the green chili before blending, or omit it entirely.
- Ensure the mango pulp is completely smooth before freezing; any fibrous bits can make the popsicles less enjoyable. I once had a batch that wasn't blended enough, and the texture was off. A powerful blender is key.
