Ingredients

1/2 cup freshly grated coconut
4 whole dry Kashmiri chillies
4 whole garlic cloves
1/8 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
Lime sized ball of tamarind
5 whole peppercorns
1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
2 tablespoons coconut oil, preferably coconut oil
1 to 2 whole green chillies
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
Salt, to taste

Preparation

Make a smooth paste of grated coconut, red chillies, turmeric, garlic, peppercorns, cumin, coriander seeds, tamarind (clean the fibers and remove seeds if any) using little water at a time, up to 3/4 cup water.
Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot (If you have a clay pot, then do use that instead, for an authentic flavor). Add chopped onions, saute until translucent. You do not need to brown the onions.
Add the ground paste and sauté for 2-3 minutes on medium heat.
Extract the remaining masala from the grinder using few tablespoons of water, and add to the pot. Add 1 cup of water (Adjust as per desired consistency). Mix well.
Add salt, to taste and slit green chillies. Bring to a boil then simmer for 5 minutes. Switch off the heat. Serve with steamed rice/pao (bread).

Notes

You can use tamarind pulp concentrate instead of grinding the tamarind, about 1 teaspoon. Add it along with the salt & green chillies.
