I remember my mother loading huge glass containers with amle ka murabba and gave some after we had our lunch during winters. The process of making this sweet cum tangy dish took quite some time, but it was worth the effort. Made with Indian gooseberries or amla, murabba is a candied fruit that can be preserved for long duration of time and is said to have various medicinal properties. Murabba can be made using fruits like apple, apricot, mango, plum and quince, sugar and spices. Amla comes packed with vitamin C that helps boost the immunity system. Apart from this, it also helps slow-down ageing, brings relief to throat problems, reduces blood sugar levels and improves heart health. Amla has long been used for its medicinal and healing properties and murabba works wonders on your skin and hair and immunity system. So a chunk of amle ka murabba every day will surely keep the doctor away.
