ingredients:
Tapioca (cubed) - 1
To grind:
Coconut - 2 sp
Cumin seeds - ¼ tbsp
Garlic - 2 pieces
1/4-1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
Salt - to taste
For tempering:

Preparation:
Peel off the skin from the tapiocas, cut into cubes, wash under running water. Boil the tapiocas along with water and little salt until it turns tender and well cooked. Drain the water and keep aside. In a blender, grind the mentioned ""to grind ingredients"" to a coarse paste. In a large saucepan, add the cooked tapiocas and the ground paste. Cook for about 5-10 minutes, until the gravy starts to thicken and is combined well. If you want you could slightly mash the tapiocas using a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and keep aside covered.
Heat a small pan over medium heat, add oil. When the oil gets hot, add mustard seeds and let it splutter. Add the chopped small onions and saute for a few minutes. Add dry red chilies and curry leaves, saute till onions have turned brown. Pour this tempering onto the cooked tapioca.
Keep the tapioca covered for sometime so that the flavors from the tempering will get into the dish. Give to your child as morning breakfast or brunch or evening snack.
