I am sure most of you already know this recipe. I am posting this anyway to remind you all that this is out there...its been a while since you made this...today you might want to try :)
A simple recipe with lots of flavor, hubby loved it.

Ingredients:
Pavakka: 2, washed and chopped thinly
Fresh coconut: 1/4 cup
Green chili: 2
Salt: According to taste

• Heat oil in a pan and add curry leaves
• After they are crispy, add the pavakka pieces.
• Meanwhile, grind the coconut and green chili together.
• After the pavakka is completely fried, add the coconut mixture and stir constantly until the raw smell of the coconut is gone.
