About Tomato charu

Tomato Charu is a tangy South Indian soup known for its vibrant flavors and simplicity. Originating from traditional Andhra cuisine, it features tomatoes as the primary ingredient, combined with tamarind pulp, garlic, black pepper, and aromatic spices such as cumin and mustard seeds. Often garnished with fresh coriander leaves, it has a thin, broth-like consistency and is typically served as a warm starter or alongside steamed rice. Rich in antioxidants like lycopene, tomatoes in Charu contribute to heart health and immune support. The soup is naturally low in calories and fat, making it a healthy choice for weight management. Spices like cumin and pepper aid digestion and boost metabolism. However, the sodium content may vary depending on preparation, so individuals monitoring salt intake should consume it mindfully. Tomato Charu is a flavorful way to enjoy a nourishing dish steeped in Indian culinary tradition.
