Gooseberry Jam
by Tarla Dalal
A tantalizing blend of sweet and sour flavours makes this Gooseberry Jam an irresistible, almost-addictive treat for the Indian palate!
When gooseberries are in season, do not forget to make this jam often because it tastes so good with bread, rotis, parathas and other dishes.
You can even enjoy it plain! Store it in an airtight container in the fridge, where it will last for 10-15 days.
