2Simmer the mangoes with the water, jaggery, chilli powder, turmeric and salt.
3Grind the coconut with half the mustard seeds and the cumin and a little water to a smooth paste.
4Stir the paste into the pot and bring just to a simmer for 3 minutes. Do not let it boil hard.
5Heat the coconut oil, splutter the remaining mustard, then add the dried chilli, curry leaves and shallots. Fry until the shallots brown and pour over the curry.
