2. Transfer sauteed curry leaves mixture into a mixer grinder. Allow them to cool and grind sauteed items along with required salt to a smooth paste (you can add water to grind it).
3. Heat oil in a pan, season with items given in the list for seasoning. Add ground curry leaves paste and saute for 5 to 7 mins. Switch off the stove and serve hot with idly or dosai.
