In a pan, combine the chopped mangoes, green chili, turmeric powder, and salt. Add just a dash of water (around 1/4 teaspoon) and cook on low flame for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mangoes are softened.

While the mangoes are cooking, prepare the coconut paste. Grind the grated coconut (or coconut pieces) with the additional green chili and a little water to form a fine paste.
