Amla

Amla Powder

The second recipe uses Amla powder instead of fresh gooseberries:

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon amla powder

• 1 cup water

• 1 tsp honey (optional)

Instructions:

1. In a small saucepan, combine the amla powder and water.

2. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer.

3. Simmer for 10-15 minutes until the water reduces by half and the mixture thickens slightly.

4. Remove from heat and let it cool down.

5. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any remaining solid particles.

6. Add honey to taste, if desired.

7. Chill the juice for an hour before serving.

Amla powder is a rich source of vitamin C and antioxidants and can be an excellent substitute for fresh gooseberries. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before adding a new supplement to your diet, particularly if you have any pre-existing health conditions or are taking medication.
