Aamras

Aamras  is the pulp of the tropical fruit Mango eaten in India. The pulp of a ripe fruit is extracted usually by hands and consumed along with Chapati. My mom use to just take a small part of the top off  sip in all the juice without peeling the mango even. Sugar is added to adjust the sweetness. A regional version of Aamras is a popular dessert in Rajasthani cuisine and Marwari homes.
