Method :

          If incase you have left over rice, else some fresh cooked rice.
         Take a pan, add 2 tbsp oil, splutter mustard, urad, cumin seeds.

           When they start to sizzle, add in the sliced onions, chillies and curry leaves.

         Add in salt, and toss them.
         When the onions turn their shapes as red, add in the shredded coconut..
