Ingredients

  • Coconut gratings – 1 cup

  • Red chilli – 2 Nos

  • Green chilli – 2 Nos

  • Fresh Ginger – a small piece (1” piece)

  • Bengal gram dhal – 1 tablespoon

  • Urad dhal – 1 tablespoon

  • Tamarind – a small gooseberry size

  • Asafoetida – a small pea size

  • Salt – ¾ teaspoon

  • Oil – 2 to 3 teaspoons

  • Mustard and curry leaves for seasoning

Directions

  • In a kadai, add a teaspoon of oil and separately fry the asafetida, dhals, and chillies until aromatic. Using the same kadai, add a little more oil and sauté finely chopped ginger until tender. Just before removing the mixture from heat, toss in the coconut and fry briefly for about a second.
