Ingredients

  • 1 cup Pineapple peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup Pineapple Pureed
  • 1 tsp Turmeric powder
  • 1 cup Curd whisked well
  • 2 tsp Salt or to taste
  • 1 to 2 tbsp Sugar

For Coconut Paste

  • 1 cup Fresh Coconut grated
  • 2 no Green chillies
  • 2 tsp Cumin seeds

For Tempering

  • 1 tsp Mustard seeds
  • 1 tsp Split Urad Dal
  • 2 sprig Curry leaves
  • 2 no Dry Red Chilli
  • 2 tbsp Coconut oil

Instructions

  • Grind together coconut, cumin, green chilli into a smooth paste by adding water. Set this aside.
  • In a kadai add pineapple, pineapple puree, turmeric powder, salt and sugar with some water and cook until the pineapple is cooked. It will take around 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Now reduce the flame, add in coconut paste and mix well. Bring this to a simmer. Once the curry is ready, take it off the heat and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before mixing in the yogurt. So the curd turns creamy and doesn’t split. 
  • In a separate pan, heat coconut oil. Fry the ingredients for tempering in oil and pour over the curry and mix well. Serve this with hot steamed rice.

Notes

  • Make sure you use chopped and pureed pineapples. I like to use more pureed pineapple for taste and texture.
  • Make sure the coconut is ground into smooth paste. So the curry is smooth and not grainy.
  • Once the curry is ready, take it off the heat and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before mixing in the yogurt. So the curd turns creamy and doesn’t split.
  • Instead of pineapple, you can use ripe mangoes.
  • You can add a spoon of chilli powder if needed.
