Equipment

  • Knife and Cutting Board
  • Sterlized glass bottle

Ingredients
  

  • 10 large Gooseberry | Amla
  • ⅛ teaspoon Saffron
  • 1 cup Honey or as needed
  • ½ teaspoon Black pepper Crushed optional
  • 1 no Cardamom Crushed optional

Instructions
 

  • Wash and pat dry the gooseberries. Now cut them into small wedges and discard the seeds. Allow the gooseberry to air dry or sun dry for few hours. There shouldn't be any moisture in them.
  • Take a clean and air tight jar, put few pieces of gooseberry in the bottom of the jar. Add some saffron strands on top and cover that with honey. Now put few more pieces of gooseberry and add some more saffron strands, Cover the entire thing with honey, don't fill too much, since it will expand and leave out some water.
  • You can cover this with a cheese cloth and keep it under sunlight for a day. Clamp a lid and store it for 2 days so the amla can soak well before consuming.
  • After 2 days, you can transfer this to fridge for longer and better storage.

Notes

  • Always use a clean, dry jar and spoons while handling this.
  • After few hours the honey will become watery, This is the water from the gooseberry leaching out. Not to worry about it.
  • Leave it to soak atleast for 5 to 8 days before consuming so it gets time to soak and become soft.
  • You can add cardamom powder or any spices that you like.
  • Daily have a piece of gooseberry along with a spoonful of honey.
  • Once all the gooseberry gets over, you can add some more cut up gooseberries in the same pot and pour some more honey and let the process get going.
