🧑‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Prep the Amla:

• Wash the amlas thoroughly.

• Prick each amla all over with a fork or toothpick to help syrup absorb.

• You can also lightly steam or blanch them for 3–5 minutes to soften them slightly.

2. Boil & Soften:

• Boil water in a deep pan and cook the amlas for 8–10 minutes or until just fork-tender.

• Drain and set aside.

3. Make the Sugar Syrup:

• In a pan, combine sugar and 2.5 to 3 cups of water.

• Heat until the sugar completely dissolves and the syrup thickens slightly (1-thread consistency).

4. Add Amla to Syrup:

• Add the pre-cooked amlas into the sugar syrup.

• Simmer on low flame for 15–20 minutes until amlas turn slightly translucent and soak up syrup.

• Add cardamom powder, saffron, and lemon juice (if using).

5. Cool & Store:

• Let it cool completely.

• Transfer to a sterilized glass jar.

• Let it mature for 3–5 days before eating for best taste — shake the jar daily.

• Keeps for 1–2 months at room temperature, longer if refrigerated.
