Simple Green Juice
Pineapples are available all year round in India. Though their outer
skin is rough and thick they are quite juicy from inside. They are an
excellent source of vitamin C, vitamin B1 and manganese.
Amaranth or Cholai leaves are quite alkalinising and help boost
energy levels. I like to add ginger and Indian gooseberry or amla
whenever possible to my green juices to make them little spicy and
lift the mood.
INGREDIENTS
1 large pineapple, peeled and chopped
200 gms amaranth leaves, washed and chopped
2 Indian gooseberries, washed, chopped and seed removed
1” ginger, washed and chopped
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Wash and prepare the ingredients.
2. Put them through your slow juicer and its done.
RECIPE NOTES
Simply remove the crown of the pineapple by pulling it out
carefully. Take a sharp serrated knife and cut the hard outer skin
gently. No need to remove the eyes of the pineapple. Now cut it
into small pieces so that they can pass through the mouth of the
juicer easily.
Don't use amaranth sticks if they are hard.
Use ginger with peel.
