Instructions

Step 1
Grind or pound the garlic, cumin seeds, turmeric and peppercorns to a smooth paste along with a little water.
Step 2
Heat the coconut oil in a saucepan and add the asafoetida, mustard seeds and curry leaves. Stir and fry for a few seconds, then add the spice paste. Reduce the heat to low and fry the paste for 1-2 minutes. Tip in the mango and pour in 700ml (1 1/4 pints) water.
Step 3
Bring the soup to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes. Just before serving, stir in the tamarind paste, tomatoes and coriander. Serve either on its own, or with a mound of fluffy rice.
