Add raw mangoes and fry again, add turmeric powder, chili powder, green chilies, and salt. Add thin coconut milk and boil well.  It will take 5 to 8 minutes. Once the gravy thickens and all the veg pieces are well cooked add thick coconut milk. Turn the heat to low and simmer it for 3 to 5 minutes. Now add jaggery syrup to adjust the tanginess and bitterness. Add roasted cumin powder on top and mix well. Garnish with curry leaves and serve with rice.
