Tamarind (Imli)

Imli is a staple Indian spice which has a unique sweet and sour taste. It is rich in tartaric acid, a powerful antioxidant that helps the body fight against cancer causing free radicals. It is also a good source of Vitamin C. Due to its unique flavour it is the spice of choice to use in a host of fish curries and south Indian staples like rasam.
