Instructions

1
Heat the coconut oil in a heavy pot until it shimmers.
2
Crackle the mustard seeds with a few curry leaves — they pop within seconds.
3
Fry the onion to deep gold, then the ginger garlic paste until the raw smell lifts.
4
Tip in the powdered spices and tomatoes; bhunao until the oil separates at the edges.
5
Pour the coconut milk and simmer gently uncovered — a boil will split it.
6
Add the butter beans, turn through the masala, and pour in a cup of hot water; cover and simmer until tender, 20-25 minutes.
7
Season, reduce to the consistency you like, and finish with cilantro.

Chef's tip

Taste before the final simmer — chili brands vary wildly.
