METHOD:
  • Grind grated coconut, red chilli powder, small onion, cumin, curry leaves and  pinch of salt with 2 tbsp of water to get a fine and smooth paste, Keep it aside.
  • In a deep vessel or pan,heat oil and splutter mustard seeds, then cook jack fruit seeds( Chakkakuru) by adding turmeric powder and salt with 1 cup of water.
  • When jack fruit seeds( Chakkakuru) are almost done, add cubed raw green mangoes and sliced Drumsticks and add 1/2 cup of water, and allow it to cook well.
  • To this add the ground coconut paste and saute well. 
  • Then add around 1/2 cup of water or enough to get your desired consistency and bring to boil in medium heat.
  • Now turn off the stove immediately as the texture will change badly if u continue to boil the ground coconut mixture.
