I remember the time when my grandma used to give me this recipe made up of the coconut milk. This recipe is very powerful homemade recipe which is good when you are having various stomach related issues especially during the summer.
A lot of people consume this drink while they eat meat gravy or chicken gravy with naan.
Health benefit
Good for stomach digestion, good for throat during summer, good to consume after oily food consumption.
Here's the final output of the solkadhi.
Ingredients
- 1-2 tbsp Curd
- 2-3 pieces of Garcinia indica (Aamsul/Kokum)
- 2 cup of coconut milk or grated coconut
- 1 tbsp cumin
- 1 clove of garlic crushed
- corinader leaves for garnishing
- salt to taste
- 1/2 tbsp ginger chopped/crushed
If you choose to use grated coconut, make sure to put the fresh coconut pieces into the grinder and put 2 cups of the water into it. And get it on with mixer. Keep it on till it becomes thick gravy and after that you can use tea filter and put the gravy through it and get coconut milk on one side and the thick portion get filtered. Leave the milk into the cup.
Process
- Take mixer and add one tbsp yogurt or curd. Add ginger, salt to taste, kokum (Garcinia indica) into it. It should look something like this.
- Make sure to get it mixed for a minute or so and make a paste with it.
- Now add the coconut milk into this mixture. It should look something like this from the top before you turn the mixer on.
Now the mixture after mixing with Garcinia indica would turn all pink reddish.
Now take the mixture out and garnish it with the corinader powder.
You can also add the cumin at the top of the drink.
You can put the drink into the fridge for 1 hour or so. It should look something like this.
This drink is definitely a good drink during summer when you eat something fried or oily. As this mixture has health benefits for stomach, so for summer season specifically it is worth consuming. You should consume the drink when you eat say chicken gravy, meat gravy or even fritters or so.
I know my recipe didn't get close to the grandmas reciipe because she didn't used to add much yogurt or so into it like I do. But yeah my experiment is pretty cool for stomach and healthy too.
Thank you for reading it till the end of the process.
