In this detailed guide, we will explore everything about Avala Murabba—its origins, health benefits, preparation process, nutritional value, uses, and why NKKN Avala Murabba is the perfect choice for your daily wellness routine.
What Is Avala Murabba?
Avala Murabba is a traditional Indian sweet preserve made by slow-cooking whole or sliced amla (Indian gooseberry) in sugar syrup along with mild spices like cardamom, saffron, or cloves. The result is a glossy, jewel-like fruit that tastes sweet, slightly tangy, and mildly spiced.
In Ayurveda, amla is known as “Amalaki”, meaning “the sustainer” or “the nurse,” because of its incredible healing properties. When preserved as murabba, the fruit retains most of its nutrients and becomes easy to consume year-round.
NKKN Avala Murabba follows an authentic recipe that balances taste and health, making it suitable for people of all ages.
The History and Cultural Significance of Avala Murabba
Amla has been a cornerstone of Indian medicine and cuisine for over 3,000 years. Ancient Ayurvedic texts such as the Charaka Samhita and Sushruta Samhita praise amla for its rejuvenating and disease-preventing qualities.
Murabba itself was traditionally prepared in royal kitchens during the Mughal era, where fruits were preserved in honey or sugar syrup to enjoy their flavors long after the harvest season. Avala Murabba soon became a household staple, especially during winters, when immunity and digestion needed extra support.
Even today, many families prepare homemade Avala Murabba every year, following age-old recipes passed down through generations. NKKN honors this heritage by offering a ready-to-eat version that maintains the same traditional flavor and nutritional integrity.
Why Amla Is Considered a Superfood
Before diving deeper into Avala Murabba, it’s important to understand why amla itself is hailed as a superfood.
1. Rich in Vitamin C
Amla is one of the richest natural sources of Vitamin C—much higher than oranges or lemons. This makes it an excellent immunity booster.
2. High in Antioxidants
Amla contains powerful antioxidants like tannins, flavonoids, and polyphenols that help fight free radicals and reduce oxidative stress.
3. Supports Digestive Health
Amla stimulates digestive enzymes, improves metabolism, and helps relieve acidity and constipation.
4. Enhances Skin and Hair
Regular consumption of amla is known to promote glowing skin, reduce signs of aging, and strengthen hair roots.
5. Regulates Blood Sugar
Amla helps in stabilizing blood sugar levels and is beneficial for people managing diabetes (in moderation).
When amla is preserved as murabba, these benefits become more accessible and enjoyable.

The Traditional Preparation Process
The preparation of Avala Murabba is a slow and patient process that requires precision and care. Here’s how NKKN Avala Murabba is crafted:
Step 1: Selection and Cleaning
Fresh, firm amla fruits are selected and thoroughly washed to remove dirt and impurities.
Step 2: Blanching
The amla is lightly blanched in hot water to soften the skin and reduce bitterness.
Step 3: Pricking or Slicing
Each amla is pricked with a fork or sliced into segments to allow the sugar syrup to penetrate.
Step 4: Soaking in Sugar Syrup
The fruit is soaked in a sugar solution and left overnight to absorb sweetness naturally.
Step 5: Slow Cooking
The soaked amla is gently cooked until it becomes glossy and translucent.
Step 6: Flavoring
Natural spices like cardamom or saffron are added for aroma and taste.
Step 7: Cooling and Packaging
Once cooled, the murabba is packed in airtight jars under hygienic conditions.
This traditional method ensures that the nutritional integrity of amla is preserved.
