Amla Gur Ki Meethi Chutney- A very healthy and nutritious Indian Gooseberry and jaggary chutney

Amla Gur Ki Meethi Chutney- Amla is an amazing wonder fruit which is packed with so many nutrients and gives numerous  health benefits. Good quality amla comes during winter and it is also very good for cold and cough ailments .

Amla is also very rich in Vitamin A so keep the skin healthy and young and also Improves the health and texture of hairs. Good to cure Gastric problems, good for liver health and for all cold related problems .

When the fruit have so many health benefits so we should have to include this in our diet at least through out the season if not the whole year. So when I brought a big bag of amla last week then I wanted to try some thing more healthier and with a good shelf life so I tried to make a a healthy home made  Chyawanprash style Amla chutney .

I have added all the possible healthy ingredients in it and made it in a way that it can be easily consumed by every one in my family. I made it slightly chunky but you can also grind the amla in a smooth paste if you wish.

Serve this amla gur ki meethi chutney as a side dish/ chutney with your meal or daily take a spoon with milk like chyawanprash.

    Hello Maayeka,
    I made the recipe for 2 servings. It tastes delicious!
    Would it keep fresh for three days at room temperature or should I refrigerate it? Then It would loose its active nutritive properties. Thank you for your advice and for sharing this recipe.

      Hi Julie
      No need to refrigerate the chutney ,it easily stays fresh for 2 months at room temperature.
