Directions
South Indian Vegetable Korma,Aromatic and delicious, with the fresh and lively flavour of cilantro, balanced by the creamy sweetness of grated coconut. Feel free to substitute vegetables of your choice. Cauliflower, winter squash, red bell pepper and aubergine all work well. We are lucky to have a neighbour with a ‘drumstick’ tree, so I included some of this in mine. Yum! Serve with rice, and other curry dishes if you wish. Adapted from a recipe by Chandra Padmanabhan.,Loved the recipe. Adjusted green chilluse to reduce spice level. It came out really good.,yummy…
