- 12 tablespoons jaggery or add as required
- ⅓ teaspoon cardamom powder
- ⅓ teaspoon roasted cumin powder
- 2 pinches black salt
Instructions
Preparation
- First take each wood apple and with a rolling pin hit it all around.
- You will see the outer hard shell cracking. Open the hard shell and you will see a brown colored pulp.
- With a spoon scoop out the soft pulp from all the three wood apples. Transfer the scooped soft pulp in a bowl.
- Add 1 cup cold water.
- Soak this mixture for 20 minutes.
- After 20 minutes, with a veggie masher, mash the pulp in the bowl itself. Mash very well.
- Then using a strainer, strain the mashed pulp mixture in parts. Also add about ½ to ¾ cup water in parts while straining the pulp.
- With a spoon stir so that the mixture is strained well.
Making Wood Apple Juice
- Once the mixture is strained, then add 12 tablespoons jaggery. You can also add sugar. Both jaggery and water can be adjusted as per your requirements.
- Then add roasted cumin powder, cardamon powder and 2 pinches of black salt.
- Mix very well.
- Pour in glasses and serve Wood Apple Juice. You can make the juice thin or thick by adding more or less water.
Notes
- Adjust the jaggery or sugar according to taste and if the wood apple is more sweet.
- Opt to skip the black salt, cardamom powder and roasted cumin powder if you do not prefer these.
