Traditional Tamarind Slab with Seeds for Curries, Sambar and Chutneys — Heera 400g

Heera Tamarind with Seeds Slab - 400g is a traditional block of compressed tamarind pulp with seeds from Heera, a well-established name in British South Asian grocery. This natural souring agent delivers the authentic tangy, fruity tartness essential to South Indian and South Asian cooking — from sambar and rasam to tamarind-based curries and sweet-sour chutneys. The 400g slab is ideal for families who cook with tamarind regularly.

Why Choose Heera Tamarind with Seeds Slab?

Tamarind slab with seeds is the most traditional form used across South Asian kitchens — soaking in warm water and straining out the seeds gives a fresher, more rounded sourness than ready-made paste or concentrate. Heera’s 400g block offers excellent value for households that use tamarind frequently in sambar, rasam, tamarind rice, and chutneys, ensuring a reliable, natural souring agent is always on hand without frequent reordering.

Serving Suggestions

  • Soak a portion in warm water for 10–15 minutes, squeeze and strain out seeds to extract tamarind water for sambar or rasam
  • Dissolve in warm water and simmer with jaggery, cumin, and chilli for a classic imli chutney
  • Use extracted pulp as the souring base for tamarind rice (puliyodarai) or tamarind dal
  • Add to marinades for fish, prawns, or chicken for a tangy, tenderising base
