- Onion -1 medium spiced
- Turmeric powder - a pinch
- Coconut - 2 tbsp
- Salt - to taste
To Temper
- Seasame oil - 2 tsp
- Mustard seeds- 1 tsp
- Split Urad dal - 1 tsp

Method
Heat a pan with oil and add the items to temper in order. Once the mustard seeds cracks and urad dal turns golden brown, add hing and curry leaves. Add onions now and nicely fry till it becomes transparent.
Once the onions turns soft and translucent, add chopped vendakkai/ladies finger and mix well. Then add turmeric powder & salt. Mix them for a minute. Keep the flame low. Fry the vendakkai/ladies finger in low flame and now it will start to stick into the pan. Add a teaspoon of seasame oil to reduce the stickiness.
Keep fry them in low flame until the Vendakkai/ladies finger is well cooked and they are completely dry. It may take 20 minutes. Once done, add scrapped coconut and mix well. Toss them for two more minutes and switch off the flame.
