Step 1 of 4
Caribbean Tamarind Balls
Add the tamarind pulp and 1 cup of the granulated sugar to a bowl and mash together with a spoon or fork until fully combined.
Step 2
Take small amounts of the mixture and roll between your palms into marble-sized balls (or slightly larger as preferred).
Step 3
Spread the remaining ½ cup sugar on a flat plate or sheet pan. Roll each tamarind ball in the sugar until well coated.
Step 4
Eat immediately or leave to set for a few hours or overnight for a firmer texture and more crystallised coating.
