Amla (Gooseberry) has lots of health benefits, it’s a seasonal fruit and we get best quality Amla just for few months (mostly January and February) during winter. It’s very common to get cold, cough and viral infection during winter, rainy season and Amla helps to deal with such cases by boosting our immunity.

Amla is packed with vitamin and nutrients. It is rich source of Vitamin C and a very important ingredient in Traditional Indian Ayurvedic Medicines. Amla is also used in Chyawanprash (an ayurvedic dietary supplement). People store it in different forms like Amla Supari (Amla salted candy), Amla powder, Amla juice, Sweet Amla Candy, Amla Murabba and many more as it is season based fruit and we don’t get fresh gooseberry all around the year.

Amla Murabba can be stored for years. Medicinal properties of Amla murabba increases with time so older the murabba is, more beneficial it becomes. I feel it should be a must item in everyone’s home. Amla Murabba is suitable for vegans also. So, Vegans won’t miss the health benefits of eating this Amla Murabba (Gooseberry Sweet Pickle).

Amla is rich in antioxidants which helps to boost immune system and helpful to control diabetes. It also has anti-aging properties. Amla is also helpful in digestive problems, nausea etc. However, it is always recommended to seek your physicians advice to check what food is suitable for you. And as you know, eating anything in excess is bad for our health, so is the case with Amla too.

We always get most of the things in the market. However, it is good to explore some things on our own. Though Amla Murabba is available in majority of food stores, trying Amla Murabba at home turns excellent which I think you must try.

Patience is the only key required for this Amle ka Murabba recipe with just a few ingredients. It takes some time to cook but we can simultaneously cook our other meals along with it to save time.
