Amla is seasonal. What can one substitute for it?

Shilpa: You can make it plain, without amla.

a) We make Puliyogare with same masaala and Tamarind base. This should be a good variation.

B) Does Nellikaye mean the small g.berries which children love to eat..the size of large peanuts……………..or larger ones, T.Tennis balla size, from which we make pickles ?

c) This recipe should work equally well with Aambado and the largeer G.berry ridged GB of a small mango size . The latter, if I remember right was featured earlier in Chutney preparation.

Best wishes.

Shilpa: Its the bigger one with which we make pickles(same as the one featured in pickle preparation).

Oops..

I meant to add I faced the same problem and found out that it is actually easy to cook up numerous variations with just one vessel. I’ve listed the different rice varieties in the One page cookbook at http://ramkicooks.blogspot.com/2008/04/1001-south-indian-variety-rice.html
