Notes
Boil amla before using it. This ensures that Amla Achar won't need much cooking time and hence not much oil.
Make sure to pat dry amla after boiling. We need everything: amla, utensils, etc to be dried enough as moisture in any of these may spoil the Achar sooner than expected.
Transfer this Amla achar to a container with lid (dried before using) and the amla achar must be cooled off and then transferred.
