Remove the edges of each tindora and slit both the sides of tindora as shown in the picture below.
Put 2 red chillies, black gram seeds, 1 tsp mustard seeds, bengal gram seeds, cumin seeds, fenugreek seeds, cloves, cinnamon and 1 tsp oil in a pan. Fry them in medium flame until they give nice aroma. Put grated coconut in a pan and fry it in medium/low flame for about 3-4 mins until it turns light golden in color.
Put fried masala and coconut in a mixer and grind them together without adding any water as shown in the picture below.
Add tamarind pulp, jaggary, salt, required amount of water and cook them well by covering the lid.
Once the water content is almost dried, add the ground masala and mix them well. Keep the palya in low flame for about 2-3 mins. Serve hot. It goes well with rice & ghee, chapathis. I tried this recipe from ETV Saviruchi. Thanks for the recipe.
