Heat a sauce pan or any griddle or pot and put 5g of oil. Put all the gathered spices in the heated pot and stir fry for a few seconds until they turn slightly brown. Don't burn it. Turn off stove and add shredded coconut. Put these ingredients in a blender.In the same pot add 5 g of oil and after it is heated add 1/2 the cut large tomato. Sautee for a minute or 2. This yields 87g of cooked tomato. Add this to the blender. Now heat the same pan and add another 5g of oil and put in 1/4 cup of cut onion. After sauteeing for a minute until it is coated with oil, add this to the blender. Now add a little water to the blender and blend the ingredients until smooth.In a pot add 12g of oil and add the remaining chopped onions. Fry for couple of minutes or so and add some water to cook it until it turns a little soft. To this add the blended spices. Add more (like 1/2 a litre) of water. After it comes to boil add the cooked tuvar dal. Mix well and add salt and tamarind paste. It has to have the texture of a stew. So add more or less water as required.
