Vegetable thorans(stir fries) is a must for every meal at my home. This thoran comes handy when I you run out of vegetables in your kitchen.

Ingredients:

1.Onion - 3, thinly sliced or chopped
2.Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
3.Chilly powder - 3/4 tsp( or a few green chillies)
4.Grated coconut - 1/4 cup or more
5.Curry leaves - a sprig
6.Salt to taste
7.Oil - 2 tbsp
8.Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp


Preparation:

1. Combine together ingredients 1 to 6 in a bowl and mix well with your hands till the onion layers are separated.
2. Heat oil in a non-stick pan and splutter mustard seeds.
3. Add the contents of the bowl and stir well. Heap everything to the center of the pan and close with a tight lid. Stir in between, sprinkle a little water if required. Cook till the onion is cooked,but still crunchy.
