“Ghotache sasav” or Ripe mango curry is made using thick coconut gravy which is tempered using mustard seeds .Normally we use small baby mangoes but normal mangoes can also be used.

“Ghotan ” is a Goan term used for special type of mangoes we get here in goa. These mangoes are grown on ungrafted mango trees. We normally don’t cut then and eat, instead we just suck the pulp. “Sasav” is Konkani term for mustard seeds.

If these mangoes are very sweet, we don’t use jaggery in the gravy otherwise we add some jaggery as per our taste. My mom got these super sweet Ghotan from market , so I avoided using jaggery .

Goan Sol Kadhi is a popular appetizer drink made of Kokum & Coconut Milk. Sol Kadi goes well with delicious sea food . It is known for its digestive properties and also is a very good detoxifying juice. In my today’s recipe, I have made two variations of sol wadi: with and without coconut. Both taste superb and good for health.

Sol kadhi is one of the famous drink which is served around konkan areas . It is our tradition or culture and you can say that our non veg thali is just incomplete without sol kadhi. There are many different ways people in Goan, Malvan prepare this kadi. The one without coconut milk is called futi kadhi in Goa. Some prefer it futi and some prefer with coconut milk. Let’s see how to prepare our authentic Konkani sol kadhi .

Preparation Time: 20 Minutes

Serves : 2

Ingredients : 

12- 15 kokum

4-5 Green chilies

1/2 Grated Fresh Coconut

1 Bunch Coriander leaves

2 cloves Garlic (Crush them using back of the knife)

1/2 Teaspoon hing(Asafoetida)

1/2 Teaspoon Sugar

Salt to taste

Water

Method:

Soak around 12-15 kokam in 2 cups of water for around 10-15 minutes

For coconut solkadhi grind freshly grated coconut and 2 green chilies use half of the kokum syrup prepared(Do not use soaked kokum yet). Use little water.

Strain it in a bowl using strainer. Use around a cup of water . do not use excess water because the coconut milk needed should be thick.

Add few of soaked kokum for extra tanginess.

Add chopped coriander leaves, 1 finely chopped green chili and salt.

Mix and we are all set to serve sol kadhi .

For sol kadhi without coconut, use remaining kokum syrup along with soaked kokum. Add in double the quantity of water in it.

Add in chopped coriander leaves, 1 chopped green chili and crushed garlic cloves.

Add 1/2 teaspoon hing(Asafoetida).

Add salt and sugar(you can adjust as per your taste). This sol kadhi is bit towards sweeter taste. Mix and serve. Enjoy both our solkadi.
