Method
Boil all the vegetables in a vessel till they become tender with some salt and turmeric.
PS:Turmeric is optional here
Grind the grated coconut with cumin seeds and green chillies into a light paste without adding much water
Add this paste into the cooked vegetables and once the coconut paste gets coated with the veggies add curd.
Boil it for few more minutes then remove from fire.
Add coconut oil and curry leaves now.
