Step 1:

Let ½ cup posto/poppy seeds soak in ¼ cup water for 15 to 20 minutes. Afterwards, use your wet grinder to crush the seeds into a smooth paste. Add sprinklings of water to the mixture during preparation, just enough to help with grinding.

Step 2:

To steam the posto, place the wet poppy seed paste in a steel tiffin box.

Step 3:

After cleaning, devein the prawns. The strong smell of the prawns can be neutralized by washing with a small amount of lemon juice.

Step 4:

Fry the potatoes in hot oil in a pan. Instead of being crispy like French fries, it should be mushy.

Step 5:

Combine the posto paste, fried potato, onion, green chilli, chopped coconut, scraps, salt, and Kachi Ghani Mustard Oil in a steel dish or tiffin box that has a tight-fitting lid. If necessary, add more water. Blend thoroughly. Add some more mustard oil to the mixture.

Step 6:

You can either use a pressure cooker or a large, lidded container, such as a kadhai, to heat the water.

Step 7:

Put the tiffin box with the mixture in the pressure cooker or kadhai and cover it with the lid.

Step 8:

Let the mixture cook for 5-8 minutes inside the cooker/kadhai.

Step 9:

After 15 minutes, take the tiffin box out of the pressure cooker and serve.
