Tangy Methi Amla

Sharing with you a very special recipe of Methi (Fenugreek) with a twist cooked with Amla (Goose berries). This dish has lot of memories attached to my in-laws house. My Mother in law to keep my father in law diabetes under control used to use lot of amla. I anyway love eating it raw or in pickle. Eating it like a sabzi was new and I must tell you that it tastes awesome.

Ingredients

1. Fresh Amla (Goose berries) – 1/2 Kg

2. Fresh Methi ( Fenugreek )- 200gm

3. Dry spices- Cumin Seeds, Coriander powder, Chilli, Turmeric powder, Garam Masala

4. Salt to taste

5. Sugar- 1/4 tsp.. (opt) use it only if the Amla are too sour

6. Green Chillies

7. Oil- 1tsp

Method

1) Pressure cook the Amla like we boil potatoes. Remove seed and cut in slices

2) Heat Oil in Pan

3) Put Cumin seeds and other dry masalas

4) Add the boiled amla and saute for a minute and then put the methi leaves

5) Add salt to taste and green chillies

6) Cook till the vegetables are tender and add garam masala

This is a variation of Potato and Methi vegetable. You can add peas or carrots along with it but you would need to steam and add the same since Goose berries are boiled.
