Vegetable Curry

I love the taste of curry. While traveling in southern India I learned to make curry with coconut milk. The creaminess of the coconut milk mixed together with the curry make the vegetables super satisfying.  I actually consider this coconut vegetable curry comfort food it’s so delicious.

Yes there is a bit of chopping in this recipe but it is so worth it.

There are many different curry powders available with different flavors.  Choose the one you like the best.  The Sun Brand Madras Curry Powder is available in most supermarkets and tastes good but it does have salt.  

Be sure to taste the vegetables before you add any salt.  The amount of salt you add will depend on your curry powder.
