Adding a cup of grinded coconut and 1/4 tsp of mustard seeds(pacha kaduku) would make it taste like a real pachadi.

adding a mixture of coarsely ground coconut and 1 green chilly to this preparation in addition to the curd would make this taste even better. seasoning the whole mixture at the end, is strongly recommended.
