1. Peel, devein and wash the shrimp. Apply a generous amount of salt preferably sea salt. Cut up the bhindi (okra) into 3 pieces and set aside.
2. Grind together the coconut, corriander seeds, garlic, peppercorns and kashmiri chillies. You should get a nice orange colour masala.
3. In a vessel put in the oil and the sliced onions and fry. Then add the masala along with the tumeric powder and fry for a minute. Then add enough water to make a substantial gravy.
4. When the curry comes to a boil add the shrimp, bhindi and salt to taste. Cover and cook on slow flame for about 10 minutes or until shrimp and the bhindi are cooked. Drop in 3 pieces of kokum and put the flame on high when it boils again. Turn it off and let it stand. Serve hot over white rice.
