The English name of Kudampuli is “Malabar Tamarind or Pot Tamarind”. It is found commonly in Southeast Asia and India, particularly Kerala and Karnataka. Kudampuli is a small, round-shaped tropical fruit that is used as a souring agent in fish recipes.

Malabar Tamarind, scientifically known as Garcinia Cambogia, is a traditional spice available particularly in tropical regions.
