Description
From the lush hills of Idukki, DukkiKart brings you Malabar Tamarind (Kudampuli | कुदम्पुली), a fruit dried and smoked to create a unique souring agent with a deep, tangy flavor. Unlike regular tamarind, Kudampuli has a distinctive smoky-sour taste that transforms dishes.
While it is famously used in Kerala’s Meen Curry (Fish Curry), Kudampuli has versatile uses across Indian kitchens. It adds flavor to vegetarian curries, dals, rasam, chutneys, and pickles. Modern kitchens also use it in detox waters, herbal teas, and smoothies for its health benefits.
DukkiKart ensures you get authentic, handpicked, sun-dried Kudampuli with rich aroma and flavor—straight from farmers of Idukki.

Additional Information / History
Known locally as Kudampuli, Malabar Tamarind has been a traditional souring agent in Kerala for centuries. It also holds a special place in Ayurveda, where it’s used in detox drinks and digestive remedies. Globally, Kudampuli is recognized as Garcinia Cambogia, a popular natural ingredient in weight-loss supplements.
From local kitchens to international wellness products, Kudampuli has journeyed far—but its purest form still comes from Kerala’s spice gardens. With DukkiKart, you bring home not just a spice, but a piece of Kerala’s heritage and wellness tradition.
