Papaya curry with grated coconut


Ingredients: 

½ portion of medium size Papaya
½ tsp of Nigella seed
4-5 green chilis (slit)
½ tsp of turmeric powder
½ tsp of red chili powder
½ tsp of garlic (minced)
1 small size onion (chopped)
1.5 cup of grated coconut
Sugar

Method:
 
1. You are ready with grated papaya, right? If not, grate it finely in a grater. Meanwhile you can grate coconut too as it will be used later.

2. Heat mustard oil in pan. As an option you can use white oil.

3. Add nigella seeds (kalonji) and 2 slit green chilis to the oil. When raw smell of spices comes out, add minced garlic and finely chopped onion and sauté them till onion and garlic become soft.

4. Now it is time to add grated papaya. Add them to oil and sprinkle turmeric powder, red chili powder and salt over the papaya. And mix them well.

5. Now make sure that you are cooking at medium heat. Reduce the heat and add rest of the green chilis and sauté for few minutes. Cover the pan with a lid.

6. After 5-7 minute, uncover the lid and check if the papaya is almost done or not.

Now add little sugar and then grated coconut. Mix well and cook for 2-3 minutes.

7. Papaya curry is done. Serve with hot rice.
