Many Sri Lankan households consider Goraka as an essential souring agent which replaces lemon, lime and tamarind. The traditional way of preserving Goraka in Sri Lankan homes is by sun drying its rind and then smoked and adding salt and oil. However, Lakpura offers its very own Goraka paste that you can easily use.
