Heera Amchoor Powder (Dried Mango Powder) — 100g
Bring bright, fruity tartness to your cooking with Heera Amchoor Powder — a fine powder made from raw, unripe mangoes that have been sun-dried and ground to perfection. Amchoor is one of South Asian cuisine's most versatile souring agents: it adds a sharp, citrusy tang without introducing any moisture to your dish — making it the secret weapon in dry spice rubs, chaat, stuffed breads, and more.
Heera is a household name in South Asian cooking, trusted for consistent quality and authentic flavour. At just £1.39 for 100g, this is an affordable pantry essential you'll reach for again and again.
What Makes Amchoor Different?
Unlike lemon juice or tamarind, amchoor adds sourness without liquid. This makes it ideal for dry dishes, spice blends, and fillings where you want tang without changing the texture. It has a fruity, slightly floral tartness that's gentler than tamarind and more complex than vinegar — unique in every way.
Where to Use Dried Mango Powder
-
Chaat & street food — essential in chaat masala, papdi chaat, and bhel puri
-
Samosa & pakora fillings — adds tang to potato and vegetable fillings
-
Aloo Tikki — mixed into the patty for a bright, fruity kick
-
Aloo Paratha filling — balances the richness of spiced potato stuffing
-
Marinades for chicken & lamb — tenderises meat while adding flavour
-
Dal & lentil dishes — stir in to brighten slow-cooked lentils
-
Sabzi (dry vegetable curries) — lifts the flavour of cauliflower, peas, and potatoes
-
Spice blends — a core ingredient in chaat masala and some curry powders
How to Use
Add amchoor powder directly to dry spice mixes, fillings, or marinades. For curries, stir in during the last few minutes of cooking to preserve the fresh, tangy flavour. Start with ½ teaspoon and adjust to taste — it's sharp and concentrated.
