Meanwhile, grind the coconut, jeera or jeera podwer, green chilli, garlic and curry leaves into a paste. Care should be taken that cocunut should not be grind too finely, u should still be able to bite the coconut. To the paste, add a little curd and grind again. Curd is used to get the sour taste. Once all the vegetables have been cooked and the water has evaporated, add the coconut - curd paste. Mix well and take off the stove once it starts boiling. Add the coconut oil and mix well. This can be had with rice or chapati or even eaten alone. This is one of the main ingredients prepared during a feast in kerala. This is a dry dish and hence used as a side dish.
