    AuthorSharmilee J

    Ingredients

    • 10 amla / gooseberry / nellikaai
    • 1 and 1/2 cups water
    • a generous pinch turmeric powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon jaggery syrup
    • salt to taste

    To Temper:

    • 3 teaspoon gingelly oil
    • 1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
    • 1 teaspoon red chilli powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon hing

    Instructions

    • Wash amla well. Take amla along with water, salt and turmeric powder. Let it cook.
    • You can see the wedges coming and if you prick with a knife, it should be soft.
    • Drain water and separate the wedges. Discard the seeds.
    • Now all the wedges are separated. In a pan – heat oil add mustard seeds, let it crackle.
    • Then add red chilli powder and hing cook for a minute.
    • Then add cooked amla and toss it for 5mins in low flame.
    • Finally add jaggery syrup if you are adding.
    • Serve with rice!

    Notes

    • I used gingelly oil. You can use normal cooking oil also.
    • Consume within a day or two itself. You can extend the shelf life by adding more oil.
    • You can add curry leaves while tempering.
