Print Pin

Ingredients

  • 500 gram 500 grams Indian gooseberries (amla)
  • 1 cup Jaggery you can adjust the amount based on your preference for sweetness
  • 1 tsp Cardamom powder
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon powder
  • 1/4 tsp Grated nutmeg
  • Water

Instructions

  • Wash the Indian gooseberries (amla) thoroughly and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Remove any stems or blemishes.
  • Using a sharp knife, make a few vertical cuts on each amla to help them absorb the flavors while cooking. In a large pot, add enough water to submerge the amla completely.
  • Bring the water to a boil. Once the water is boiling, carefully add the amla to the pot. Let them cook for about 5-7 minutes until they become slightly soft but not mushy.
  • Drain the water from the pot and allow the amla to cool down.
  • Once the amla are cool enough to handle, slice them into halves or quarters, depending on your preference.
  • In a separate saucepan, add the jaggery along with a little water (just enough to dissolve the jaggery). Heat the mixture over low heat until the jaggery completely dissolves, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the cardamom powder, cinnamon powder, and grated nutmeg to the jaggery syrup. Stir well to combine.
  • Add the sliced amla to the jaggery syrup mixture in the saucepan. Mix gently until the amla are coated evenly with the syrup.
  • Cook the amla in the syrup over low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the syrup thickens slightly and coats the amla well.
  • Turn off the heat and let the Amla Murabba cool down to room temperature. Ans serve
