grind to a fine paste green chillies & coconut.
once the vegetables are well cooked, add the ground paste, let it boil well, then add curd, let it boil well once, remove, add curry leaves finely chopped along with coconut oil, cover it at once to retain the flavour.

NOTE- some avoid putting curd, as it turns sour soon if the weather is too hot, still it tastes good.
