Amla Chutney/Indian Gooseberry Chutney

                 Gooseberry or Amla,  the richest natural source of Vitamin C has plenty of health benefits. It is mostly available in winter season October to February and I always make best use of this little berry in my cooking to get maximum benefits out of them. One of my favorite is "amla chutney/gooseberry chutney".  My first 4 to 5 bytes of  rice will be with this chutney during amla season. Trust me you too will love this.

  • Cool it and store it in a airtight container. Amla chutney is ready to serve with hot rice topped with ghee. Indeed a healthy chutney!!!!!!!

Note:
  • Add enough oil  for seasoning otherwise the chutney will be burnt and it won't last longer. Handful of curry leaves enhance it's flavor, so don't forget to add them.
  • This chutney can be stored for a week without refrigeration.
  • Amla chutney cannot be a good combo with dosa or Idly.
