Make sure water is not too much or else the dish will be watery and not thick when done .(So after the vegetables are done if u feel the water is more than enough then drain the excess water to a bowl .)

By this time blend coconut ,3 shallots and cumin powder together (no need to grind ,just give a whip).

Add 3tbsp of curd to the cooked vegetables and mix well .(If u feel the sourness is not enough u may add more)

Check the salt .If u feel more salt is needed then add needful amount of salt to the coconut mixture and mix well..

Add this coconut mix and the onion mix(Crush 5 shallots ,1 piece ginger ,2 green chilly and 1 string curry leaves )to vegetables and add 1 tbsp of coconut oil .

Just try to cover the vegetables by coconut and onion mix (kai kondu nannayi pothy vakkuka) .
