* salt to taste
* ¼ tsp vinegar
* light green squash (dudhi- in Hindi, can be purchased from the Indian store)
* about 4 tbsp oil for the curry
* about 2 tbsp oil for the choak (I use olive oil because it is healthier. coconut oil and canola can also be used)
== Directions ==
=== The curry ===
# Heat oil in a vessel.
# Add onions and fry until pink.
# Add coconut milk.
# Reduce heat to med.
# Wait until the coconut milk comes to boil.
# Add vinegar while stirring continuously to prevent curdling.

=== The Choak ===
# During the time the veggies are cooking, heat oil in a tadka spoon or another vessel.
# Add the remaining ingredients to the hot oil that is, ½ tsp cumin seeds, peppercorns, red chillies, curry leaves and smashed garlic.
# When the garlic turns a med to dark brown and all the other whole spices release their flavour, throw this mixture into the curry and give in a stir and cook until veggies are done.
