Next, take a pan and add three tablespoons of coconut oil. Once the oil is heated, add chopped garlic, salt, curry leaves, pandan leaves, dried chilies, cinnamon, and fennel seeds. Sauté the mixture until it becomes fragrant and slightly golden, releasing its rich aroma

4 Step.

Next, add the chopped ash plantains to the pan and mix well with the sautéed ingredients. Then, add chili powder, turmeric powder, and curry powder, ensuring they coat the plantains evenly. If needed, add a little more salt to enhance the flavor. Stir everything thoroughly to blend the spices well

5 Step.
Next, add a little tamarind juice and coconut milk to the mixture. Let it simmer on low heat for about 4 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend beautifully. Once the dish reaches the desired consistency, remove it from the heat and set it aside.
