Method
Step 1
Firstly, clean ladies finger & fry it without any oil in a thick bottom pan (nammada cheena chatti 😉 ) until the watery feeling of ladies finger disappear.
Step 2
For gravy: Fry fresh coconut until golden brown. To this add 1/4 tbsp fennel seeds, 2 tbsp coriander powder, 1/4 tbsp turmeric powder, 1/2 tbsp red chilli powder, 5 shallots, 1/2 inch length ginger, 6 curry leaves and stir fry until the masala gets heated.
Step 3
Then switch off the flame and allow it to cool. After that, grind well adding enough water to make a fine paste.
Step 4
Pour this to a clay pot and allow it to boil. You can add enough water as per your requirement. To the boiling gravy, add some chopped shallots, 2 green chilli and salt to taste.
Step 5
After 5 minutes, add fried ladies finger to the gravy and allow it to cook for 2 minutes.
Step 6
In parallel do a seasoning by heating oil (coconut oil) in a pan. Sputter Fenugreek Seeds (uluva), mustard seeds (Kaduku), dry whole chilli & some curry leaves.
Step 7
Add the seasoning on top of curry and mix well. Check salt.
Step 8
If salt is less, add and adjust it, as per your taste... If more .... ayoooo... be careful to add less salt. I felt, this curry tastes better with little less salt!!! Not a joke, actually I felt like that...
