Gooseberry / Amla (in Hindi) / Nellikai (in Tamil) fruit is rich in Vitamin C; regular consumption will be helpful in preventing many diseases. After having tried Gooseberry juice and Gooseberry raita already, I have now tried Gooseberry rice.
It is an easy to make and very tasty rice variety. The mild tangy taste similar to lemon rice is very much liked by the kids, so as me.
