Ingredients
4
9 pieces kokam fruits
4 cups Water
2 tbsp Ghee
half teaspoon Cumin seeds
4 pieces Curry leaves
1 tablespoon Coriander leaves
2 pieces Bay leaves
2 tbsp Besan Chickpea Flour
half teaspoon Cinnamon
2 pieces Cayenne or black pepper
half teaspoon Ground cloves
half teaspoon Salt
1 tablespoon Jaggery
Directions
Wash and soak the Kokam fruits in 1 cup (236ml) of water for 10-20 minutes.
Squeeze the fruits into the water several times to extract the flavor, then remove them from the water.
In a saucepan over medium heat, add ghee, cumin seeds, curry leaves, cilantro, and bay leaves. Stir or shake the pan until the seeds start to pop.
Pour in the soaked Kokam water along with 2 more cups (473ml) of water.
Mix chickpea flour with the remaining cup of water until smooth, then add it to the soup, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Add cinnamon, cayenne or black pepper, ground cloves, salt, and jaggery to the soup. Stir well and let it gently boil for 5 minutes.
Makes approximately 4 servings.
