Method:-

Cut drumsticks into finger's length pieces (2-1/2"). Remove some of the outer hard fibers of the sticks to expose the inner soft layer.

Grind together grated coconut, pepper, coriander seeds, salt, chili powder, turmeric powder, a little jaggery in a blender.

 Heat oil in a kadai mustard seeds, and let them splutter. Then add the hing and methi seeds stir (take care not to brown them or they turn bitter)add a little water to this baghar or tempering to prevent it from burning..

Boil the drumsticks in this water with a little salt and turmeric until the drumstick is tender.

To this add the ground paste and cook on a medium flame.

The consistency of the gravy entirely depends on your preference , it can be either thick and watery or dry (use less water while grinding).
