Pineapple curry



When we need to try some mango delicacies during the non-mango season, then, pineapple comes handy. Of course the flavour will be that of pineapple. Pineapple can be used in the place of mango in all the recipes that use mango as the main ingredient. This curry is one that is similar to mango curry except that we use tamarind here instead of curd. 

Ingredients:
Ripe pineapple – 1 (250gms)
Grated coconut -1cup
Tamarind paste – 1tsp
Red chillies - 5
Fenugreek seeds - 1/4tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/2tsp
Brown sugar – 2tsps
Mustard seeds - 1tsp
Curry leaves - few
Salt and oil- as required

Method:
Fry the fenugreek seeds and red chillies in little oil. Grind it along with grated coconut to a smooth paste. Keep it aside. Skin and cut the pineapple into cubes. Cook it in one cup of water along with tamarind paste, salt and turmeric powder. When the pineapples are cooked, add the ground paste, brown sugar, curry leaves and more water. Check the consistency. Simmer for few seconds. Garnish with mustard seeds tempered in oil.
