Mango peda recipe with stepwise photos. A super quick, hassle-free mango sweet made mainly with 3 ingredients.

Peda is a very popular traditional Indian milk-based sweet made with khoya/mawa/evaporated milk solids. However, this aam ka peda recipe is the instant version using milk powder and mango pulp. It can be made in just under 15-20 minutes.

Let's see how to do this!

Preparation Step By Step

• Blend the chopped mangoes into a fine puree and set aside.
• Heat a nonstick pan with ghee. Once the ghee starts melting add mango puree.

• Stir continuously for 2 minutes. Then add milk powder and cardamom powder. 
• Stir continuously until all the moisture evaporates and the mixture thickens. Make sure not to overcook. 
• Once done, turn off the flame and set aside to slightly cools down. 
• Grease your palms with ghee, divide the peda dough into equal portions. 
• Take a portion, roll with your palm and make a round crack free ball shape. 
• Now gently press a finger on the top and put some chopped almonds or any dry fruits. 
• Follow the same process and make all of the pedas. 

• Aam pedas are ready. Refrigerate and serve.

 Tips

• No extra sugar has been added here. As the milk powder already has sugar. Do add sugar if using unsweetened milk powder.
• Always use non-fibrous, sweet mangoes while making any sweet or beverage.
• Use canned mango pulp if fresh ones are not available.
• Use a nonstick pan to avoid sticking to the pan. However, any pan can be used.
• While cooking makes sure not to overcook. As overcooking may make these chewy.
• Any dry fruits and nuts could be used for garnishing.
• Storage: These mango sweets could be easily stored for a week when refrigerating in an airtight container.
