Muringakayum Mangayum Chertha Pachha Theeyal - Drumstick and Unripe Mango Curry with Coconut

Ingredients of Muringakayum Mangayum Chertha Pachha Theeyal

Serves: 8

Pachha means green. Here it signifies the fact that spices, coconut and vegetables are cooked without frying, as is the norm for a theeyal.

4 drumsticks (surjan ki phalli)

1 unripe mango

5 shallots, chopped

4 green chillies, slit

2 tsp red chilli powder

1 tsp coriander powder

½ tsp turmeric powder

1 tsp salt

Ground to a very fine paste:

1 medium-sized, fresh coconut, grated

3 shallots, chopped

1 tsp cumin seeds

1 ½ cups water

Tempering:

2 tbsp oil

1 tsp mustard seeds

2 shallots, chopped

1 stalk curry leaves

Method of Preparation of Muringakayum Mangayum Chertha Pachha Theeyal

  • Peel and cut drumstick into 7-cm pieces. Peel and cut mango into 1-cm cubes.
  • Put drumsticks, mango, shallots, green chillies, spice powders and salt in a pan. Mix well and add 1 ½ cups water.
  • Place pan over high heat and cook for 5-10 minutes till drumsticks are tender. Add a little more water if it tends to get dry.
  • Add coconut paste and mix well. Bring to boil and remove from heat immediately.
  • Heat oil for tempering in a small pan and sprinkle in mustard seeds. When they start sputtering, add remaining ingredients and fry till shallots turn brown.
  • Pour contents of pan into curry, mix well and serve.

Variation: A handful of cleaned, sliced jackfruit seeds added with the drumsticks and mango enhances the taste.
