Abstract

This study was aimed to prepare amala (Phyllanthus emblica L.) chutney and to determine its phytochemicals and nutritional compositions, antioxidant activity and sensorial properties. The amala pulp and sugar were mixed separately at the proportion of 70:30, 60:40, 50:50, 40:60 and 30:70 and labeled as samples A, B, C, D and E respectively. Sample A exhibited highest tannins, total polyphenols, flavonoids content and percent DPPH inhibition (198.9 mg GAE/g, 606 mg GAE/g, 153.47 mg QE/g and 61.67% respectively), and sample B exhibited highest ascorbic acid content (325.4 mg/100g) among the chutney samples. The crude proteins, crude fat, crude fiber, total ash and moisture content were higher (2.1%, 0.328%, 5.03%, 1.73% and 51.17% respectively) in sample A. The carbohydrate content and energy value were higher (66.16% and 267.9 Kcal/100 g respectively) in sample E. Total sugar, TSS and pH (75.93%, 60.3 °Bx and 4.56 respectively) was higher in sample E while acidity (1.21% as citric acid) was high in sample A. Most of the sensory attributes were significantly higher (P
