Gooseberry Chutney
நெல்லிக்காய் துவையல்
நெல்லிக்காய் துவையல்
Gooseberry ( நெல்லிக்காய்) - 2
Green Chilli ( பக்சை மிளகாய்) - 2
Ginger ( இஞ்சி ) - a small piece ( ஒரு சிறு துண்டு)
Shredded coconut ( தேங்காய் துருவல்) - 2 tsp
Sal to taste ( தேவையான அளவு உப்பு)
Seasoning ( தாளிக்க)
Mustard seeds ( கடுகு) - 1/4 tsp ( optional )
Curry Leaves ( கறிவேப்பிலை) ( optional )
Steps:
Wash and dry the gooseberries. Slice it into small pieces. Throw away the seed. In a blender add all the ingredients and make a smooth paste. Water may not be required, if need be, add a little.
Transfer to a serving bowl. Heat a teaspoon of coconut oil, add mustard seeds and curry leaves. Once the mustard seeds crack, pour it over the chutney.
My Notes:
Gooseberry, the powerhouse of vitamin C, is eaten as it is. This is a simple recipe yet salivating. Tingles your taste bud at the first taste. I had tasted this at the ayurvedic center when they served with rice porridge. A great combination. Goes well with idli or dosai as well.
This is one of the forgotten food getting its place on the dining table.
Low in sugar, high in fiber, this fruit is consumed raw, or as chutney of different types of preparation or as juice. Amla Murabha- preserved gooseberries is also commonly eaten but it is high in calories due to the sugar content.
In whatever way you prefer, consume regularly and reap the benefits from young whether it is for hair growth or boost the immune system or for digestion or control cholesterol.
This gooseberry can be traced to its origin as far back as Tamil Sangam literature. Most of us must have heard of the story of King Athiamaan giving nelikanni to Poet Avaiyaar.
