Paladya (ಪಳದ್ಯ)
An authentic Havyaka curry made with buttermilk or sour curd and a ground coconut-spice paste — traditionally prepared with okra, cucumber, dosakai, or potatoes.
Ingredients
- Okra – 5–6 (or substitute cucumber, dosakai, or potatoes)
- Grated coconut – 1 cup
- Dry red chilli – 1
- Green chillies – 2
- Coriander seeds – 1½ teaspoons
- Mustard seeds – ½ teaspoon
- Turmeric – ¼ teaspoon
- Curry leaves – a few
- Lime – ½
- Salt – to taste
- Buttermilk
- For seasoning: oil – ½ teaspoon, split black gram (urad dal) – ½ teaspoon, a pinch of asafoetida, mustard seeds – ¼ teaspoon
Instructions
- Wash the okra thoroughly, drain, and wipe dry with a cloth to remove all moisture.
- In a vessel, add about 2 cups of water, salt, and a squeeze of lime to taste, then bring to a boil with the lid on.
- Cut the okra into slightly large pieces and set aside.
- Grind the red chilli, green chillies, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, turmeric, and 2 curry leaves with the grated coconut into a smooth paste, adding water as needed.
- Once the water starts boiling, add the okra pieces and cook for 5–6 minutes (2 minutes if using frozen okra).
- When the okra is half-cooked, add the ground paste and a little more water if needed, along with a few curry leaves. Let it boil for another 2–3 minutes.
- Do the seasoning while the curry is still hot.
- Just before serving, add some buttermilk to the warm Paladya and serve with rice.

a suggestion..'few'means none.'A few' means 'some'.
eg: few people come here...hardly anyone comes here
A FEW people came home...some,not many, people came home.
thus your recipe should read :'A few curry leaves"
Thanks for correcting me..will apply it in my future write-ups!
