Aamchur has a tangy, slightly sweet flavour and adds a sweet-sour taste to any dish. It is commonly used in North Indian cooking as a substitute for tamarind. It has a similar flavour profile to tamarind and lemon juice. It is a favoured ingredient of dishes like Punjabi chole, matra kulcha, chicken tikka and aloo tikki chaat. It finds favour with pregnant women as the tangy sweet and sour flavour caters to pregnancy urges for ‘khatta’ food.
