Recipe
1
Soak the dried kokum petals in warm water for about 20 minutes until they soften and release their bright pink color and tart flavor.
2
Blend the freshly grated coconut with cumin seeds and a little water to extract thick first-press coconut milk, then strain and set aside.
3
Grind the residue coconut a second time with more water to extract thin coconut milk and mix it with the first extract.
4
Combine the kokum water and the extracted coconut milk in a bowl.
5
Add the minced garlic, slit green chili, asafoetida, and salt, stirring gently to combine all the aromatic flavors.
6
Let the mixture rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature so the flavors meld together thoroughly.
7
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and serve chilled or at room temperature alongside warm steamed red rice.
