Goraka Paste

Goraka Paste is a traditional Sri Lankan cooking ingredient made from goraka, a sour fruit commonly used in local cuisine. It is valued for its distinctive tangy flavour and is widely used to add acidity and depth to curries, fish dishes, meat preparations, and various traditional recipes.

The convenient paste form makes it easier to use compared with preparing fresh or dried goraka. A small amount can add a pleasant sour taste and enhance the overall flavour of a dish. Goraka is particularly popular in Sri Lankan-style fish curry and other dishes where a natural souring ingredient is desired.
