Honey Gooseberries(தேன் நெல்லிக்காய் ):

The health benefits of Indian Gooseberry, also known as Amla, can be partially attributed to its high vitamin-C content. Amla enhances food absorption, balances stomach acid, fortifies the liver, nourishes the brain and mental functioning, supports the heart, strengthens the lungs, regulates elimination of free radicals, enhances fertility, helps the urinary system, increases skin health, promotes healthier hair, acts as a body coolant, flushes out toxins, increases vitality, strengthens eyes, improves muscle tone and, acts as an antioxidant.
I usually dont have a likeness for sour taste so whenever I get Amla I prepare it this way and preserve it for 1 or 2 months.

I have left space for the photo because it takes time for it to get ready!!
