Gooseberry Pickle / Amla Achar

This is an instant gooseberry pickle.  As I am very bad with pickle but I love to make it. So this time I am made it with readymade pickle masala.  There are lots of pickle masalas available; I prefer the South Indian brands like Nirapara pickle masala or Melam pickle masala.


Ingredient

Gooseberry – 1 kg
Salt – 2 tsp.
Pickle masala – 3tbsp
Oil – 250gm
 
Method

1.   In a pan add the gooseberry and cover it with water. Put it into heat.  When the water starts boiling, put off the heat.  Keep it covered for half an hour.

2.   Remove the gooseberry and strain and let it dry for an hr.

3.   Now, cut into wedges and remove the seeds.

4.   Mix the salt and pickle masala to the gooseberry wedges and mix well.

5.   Heat the oil in a kadai ( to test if it is hot, put a few mustard seeds it should crackle). Put of the heat and let it cook for 10 min.

6.   Now add the gooseberry mixture to the oil, mix it well.

7.   Cook it on low flame for 2 min.

8.   It is ready to eat.
