This is my own version of amla rice, though made using the regular set of ingredients (I also make this dish using raw mango in the same way).
This amla rice was awesome and we all liked and enjoyed it thoroughly. Here in Gurgaon we get very good quality amla during winter and they are very big in size and they are more sour compared to what we get in namma Bengaluru.
This one is the addition to the list of items made using amla, other than this I have posted achari amla subji , amla pickle , amla pickle/tokku , and various types of chutneys like amla chutney , dhaniya-amla chutney , Pudina-amla chutney , amla curd chutney .
And yet to post some more chitranna recipes and pickle and tokku recipes. Hoping to post those asap, let’s look at today’s recipe.
