Ammade che KaramHow can I say I live in Goa and forget about Ammado or Ammade?
How can I say ammado and forget about “Ammade che karam”! The delicious sweet and sour delicacy? I had mentioned the sour fruit called Ammado and also written about. You can read more about it here and here.
Karam or chutney as it is called is a major requirement for Diwali or Deepavali festivities in Goa.
But before that let me tell you something about the Narkasur effigy made here and burnt in the morning the next day.
Diwali for us meant making dry stuff like chakalis, shankarpali, chivda, ladoos etc. but here in Goa there are different varieties made from poha, yes the regular beaten rice they are called fov here. Have you had rasatele fov, batat fov, thikse fov, dahi fov, god fov to name a few, and then there is chanya cho ras and chutney.
Chutney is Amado chutney.
To make chutney the basic ingredient is of course ammado. There is no replacement for it. So I suggest if you come to Goa or even Karwar etc try this local dish out. It’s delicious.

Priya says
quite a new dish for me, can guess how flavor this dish will be..
Srivalli says
I checked out to see if you had posted the pic of the fruit, it does look like tender mangoes..does it taste like that also?...
themadscientistskitchen says
Well yes especially if you make pickle with the tender ones. Once they mature they develop a hard fibrous centre which is what we try to break when we hammer them and the centre is sucked clean and all the sour and tasty curry flavours seep in your mouth.
Rajani says
I saw ammado in one of your early posts (while i was looking for Goan recipes 🙂 ). Its called kanni manga, mavudu or tender mangoes here. Its usually used for pickles.
What you have presented here is something new for me. Will try when I get my hands on kanni manga next time :)!

An unusual ingredient for a chutney. Have not heard of amade but on googling found out that it is called Indian Hog Plum. Love when traditions are followed for festivals.
