Aamras ranked first in the world
According to a list published by Taste Atlas, Aamras, originally from Maharashtra, has topped India’s list of the world’s best-rated mango dishes. Mango Sticky Rice from Thailand was ranked second and Sorbetes from the Philippines ranked third on the list.
Aam dal from West Bengal and Amba from Mumbai also made the list.
Aamras delicacy is famous especially in western states of India like Maharashtra and Gujarat. Aamras is the mildly sweetened pulp of mangoes, often paired with puris. Taste Atlas writes: “Sometimes it is only elevated by the addition of saffron, dry ginger or cardamom, but its simplicity allows room for variation and the creation of many varieties.”
