• 1/4 cup tamarind water
• 1/4 cup jaggery powder
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup coriander seeds
• 6-8 pieces dried red chilies
• 1 handful fresh curry leaves
• 1 cup grated coconut
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
• Oil
• 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
• 1 teaspoon urad dal
• 2-3 pieces dried red chilies
• 1 small handful curry leaves

1. 1Peel three unripe (green) mangoes, revealing their bright yellow flesh.
2. 2Place mango peels in a glass bowl, pour water over them, and thoroughly wash and squeeze the peels by hand to extract remaining pulp and flavour into the water.
3. 3Place the peeled mangoes into a cooking pot, pour the reserved mango-infused water from the peels over them to submerge, and add a sprinkle of salt.
4. 4Cover the pot and boil the mangoes for about 5 minutes.
5. 5Remove the lid, add tamarind water and jaggery powder to the pot, stir the mixture, cover again, and allow to boil for another 5 minutes.
6. 6In a separate pan, dry-roast coriander seeds, 6-8 dried red chilies, and a handful of curry leaves until fragrant, stirring continuously.
7. 7Transfer the roasted ingredients to a bowl to cool, then add 1 cup grated coconut and 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder.
8. 8Grind the cooled roasted ingredients, grated coconut, and turmeric powder into a smooth, reddish-orange paste.
9. 9Add the prepared masala paste to the boiling mangoes in the pot and stir thoroughly to ensure the mangoes are well coated and the paste is incorporated into the liquid, forming a thick curry.
10. 10Cover the curry and allow it to cook for another 10 minutes.
11. 11In a small pan, heat oil, add 1 teaspoon mustard seeds and allow them to splutter.
12. 12Add 1 teaspoon urad dal, 2-3 dried red chilies, and a small handful of curry leaves to the pan and fry until aromatic and the dal turns golden.
13. 13Pour the hot tempering directly over the simmering mango curry in the pot and briefly stir to distribute the flavors.
