Sounds wonderful. Isn't coconut milk a grand thing? I know that it isn't considered by some to be very healthy, but there are far worse things a person can cook with. I'll be trying this recipe very soon.

Hi - hope you like it when you try it out...yes, eating coconut based foods everyday can increase your cholestrol levels...but in south indian style cuisine, where coconut is used in a lot of dishes, i find that i can make do with just one coconut for about 10 days... or i make sure that i don't use coconut more than once a week. And if the rest of your food is relatively oil free, it should be okay...

This sounds sumptious! thank you!! I am trying to learn about Indian food, and is a delightful trip!!
With reference to steaming, do you include the spices in the same amounts with the veggies in the steam environment?
