Now, talking about the quality of mangoes we will use for this recipe, please be sure to select firm, sweet ripe mango to make aam ki phirni recipe. If in case, mangoes are not available in your region, you can make it using canned mango pulp also. Just that, do not forget to keep a check on sugar, as you may have to adjust the quantity of it accordingly. For this aam ki phirni recipe, I have used Alphonso mangoes to make the puree.

To make phirni using condensed milk, the only thing we need to do here is, just swap the sugar from this recipe with condensed milk. Again, you have to adjust the quantity of condensed milk depending upon the sweetness you prefer. For this recipe, 1/4 cup of condensed milk is just perfect quantity.

If you see, in the recipe, I have added little khova to it. The addition of khova is absolutely optional. Without mawa also, mango phirni will taste equally delicious as that of with mawa in it.

This delicious creamy summer mango dessert is ideally served after Indian meal either at lunch or dinner at home for festivals or parties. Or simply enjoy Indian mango rice pudding after a weekend meal with your family. After all, mango phirni is a show stopper after any meal and I mean it 🙂
