Steps

35 minutes

1

Steam the amla for 10-12 minutes. Let it cool.
Next take a kadhai, saute the whole spices until it's aromatic.
(I haven't added Fenugreek seeds in the masala but you certainly add them.)
2

Let the whole spices cool down.
3

Grind the dry roasted, whole spices into a fine powder.
Next chop the amla into pieces. Keep aside.
Next heat a kadhai with oil.
Splutter nigella seeds and fennel seeds.
4

Now add the amla in the kadhai.
Put salt, black salt, turmeric powder, and red chili powder. Add Kashmiri Lal Mirch for nice colour. Mix and saute for some time.
5

Next, add the prepared achaar masala powder. Mix and continue sauteing.
6

Next, add chopped jaggery to the sauteed amla.
Keep the heat very slow.
Jaggery will melt.
7

As flavours combine and the consistency becomes thick, add in grated ginger and granulated sugar.
Let the sugar dissolve.
Stir and mix gently.
It's ready!!
Switch the flame off.
8

Let the achaar settle down and cool.
As days pass by the achaar's taste will turn from better to best.
So do try the recipe!!
9

Store the achaar in a glass or porcelain container and be careful against water for a long shelf life.
