Wash the peels in salty water and re-wash to rinse off the salt.
Cut peels into small pieces.
In a pot, add the plantain peels, turmeric & curry powder, curry leaves, a pinch of salt, and enough water to cover everything. Simmer covered on low heat for 2-3 min, and then cook uncovered until all the water evaporates.
Meanwhile, grind fresh coconut, a pinch each of curry powder and turmeric, chili, and salt to taste in a food processor or mortar and pestle.
Once there's no water left in the pot, add the coconut symbol and mix continuously on medium heat till it smells good.
Taste and add more salt if needed. Enjoy with a side of roti or rice!
