Garcinia Cambogia (Garcinia Atrovidis) as known as Asam Gelugur or Tamarind Slice is a tropical fruit tree native to Africa.

The fruit is pod-like and contains a sticky, sour pulp surrounding its seeds. Asam keping is made from the outer peel of the tamarind fruit. The peel is sun-dried until it becomes hard and can then be used for various culinary and medicinal purposes.

Garcinia Cambogia is known for its sour and slightly sweet flavor. It is often used to add a tangy taste to dishes in Southeast Asian cuisines, including Malaysian, Indonesian, Thai, and Indian. It is used in both savory and sweet dishes, such as soups, curries, marinades, and chutneys
