How to make Aam panna
Some steam boil or pressure cook the mangoes without removing skin and after they get tender, skin is removed. We find this method to be messy.So we prefer to remove the skin prior to boiling or pressure cooking it but the same case doesn’t apply to the rotating method. Remove the skin only after roasting the Mangoes for Aam Panna.
