Orange and Amla Fruit Bowl
A small bowl of orange or sweet lime segments with a little grated amla is fruit to eat. It is not a glass of juice, and it is not a promise of better immunity.
An orange and amla bowl, not juice
Orange or sweet lime, broken into segments, with a little fresh amla grated on top, is a sharp, fresh bowl. Eating the fruit keeps the fibre that a juicer throws away. A tall glass of juice is a different habit and not this one.
One small bowl is plenty. Sour fruit can bother teeth and a sensitive stomach if the bowl becomes a jug. Use it as food beside a normal meal, not as a cleanse.
Ingredients
- 1 small orange or sweet lime
- 1 small fresh amla, grated
- A small bowl, and no juicer
How to prepare
- Peel the orange or sweet lime and separate the segments into a bowl.
- Grate a little fresh amla over the fruit and eat it as it is, without juicing.
How to use
- Eat one small bowl with or after a meal.
- Do not turn the fruit into a large glass of juice.
- Rinse the mouth with plain water afterwards if the sour taste lingers on the teeth.
Helpful habits
- Sweet lime works the same way if orange is not in the kitchen.
- A few gratings of amla are enough. The whole fruit grated on top can be too sharp.
Precautions
- This is fruit, not juice, and not a cleanse.
- Skip or reduce it if sour fruit hurts your stomach or teeth.
- It does not replace care for illness, and it does not promise stronger immunity.
Frequently asked questions
Can I juice the orange and amla instead?
- No. This habit is a small bowl of fruit, not a glass of juice.
Is sweet lime all right if I have no orange?
- Yes. Sweet lime segments with a little grated amla follow the same idea.
How much amla goes on the bowl?
- A light grating. The whole amla on a small bowl can taste too sharp.
