Tomatoes prices turn red hot:  How to  replace them  in the kitchen

When cooked properly, raw mango gives the texture of tomatoes. Dried mango powder (amchoor) can also be used instead.

Tamarind most closely resembles the fresh sweet-tangy flavour of tomatoes.

Amla (Indian gooseberry) tastes like green tomatoes, making it a suitable replacement.

Red bell peppers are another excellent alternative for tomatoes.

Make your curries using yoghurt. It provides the ideal thickness and tanginess, so you won't miss the taste of tomatoes.

After tomatoes, vinegar is the best bet for a unique sour and tangy flavour.

Lemon juice is also a great option if you want to add sourness to your dishes.

Hibiscus flowers may give your food a pleasing appearance while allowing you to experiment with a distinctive flavour profile.
