Once the ingredients are cooled , throw it in a food processor and grind it. In the below pic u can see the texture of the grinded mixture.
Now in the same kadai , add some oil and splatter some mustard seeds and sprinkle some hing and curry leaves.Once the mustard seeds are splattered , add the grinded mixture to the hot pan. Saute it for few minutes or until the raw smell is gone and store it in a container.
