Temper the Spices: In a pan, heat a teaspoon of oil over medium heat. Add the cumin and mustard seeds, allowing them to crackle. Follow with curry leaves and dry red chillies. Add a pinch of asafoetida and the crushed garlic, sautéing for about 20 seconds until fragrant.

Combine and Serve: Pour the tempered mixture over the extracted coconut milk, then stir in the kokum liquid. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves for an added burst of flavor.
