Hung curd: 1/2litre
½ coconut, grated

Preparation
Dice yam and plantain in small pieces. In a food processor blend grated coconut, fenugreek and cumin seeds together until you get a smooth paste. Don’t add any water since coconut will exude its juice.
In a pot of boiling water cook the vegetable with pepper powder, turmeric powder, and salt. When all the water is absorbed add ghee to the pan. Add the yogurt and keep it in low flame. When the yogurt gets thick add the ground coconut and spice mixture to it. Stir well and bring it to a boil.
Prepare a tempering of mustard seeds, dried chilies, and curry leaves and spread it over the dish before serving.
