Tips & Tricks
- Always use clean dry spoon while eating the gooseberry.
- If you see the syrup has turned watery the next day, boil it for some more time to get it thick. This must have happened because the gooseberry must have leached some water out. 3)Use fresh firm gooseberry for this. If you see any black bits cut them off. 4)You can make this with whole gooseberry too.
- Make sure you get the syrup thick, because watery syrup will reduce the shelf life of the gooseberry.
