  • Store in a airtight clean sterilised glass jar. Serve with bread , roti , thepla , etc . Stays good for a year without refrigeration or in fridge .

Notes

  1. Choose less sour firm mangoes . I use totapuri / rajapuri variety mangoes .
  2. Don't overcook the jam . It will harden .
  3. For flavoring i have added cinnamon and cloves. You can use something else too or omit.Instead you can use cardamom or roasted cumin powder .
  4. If made well,stored well and used with clean hands , this homemade jam remains fresh for many months even at room temperature.

    Hi Smitha, I tried this recipe today & it did turn out awesome, but just a little bit spicy coz of the excess chilli powder.. any tips to reduce it other than adding more sugar???

      reducing spicyness now is difficult now other than adding more sugar .. you can also add little citric acid .. that is lemon crystals
