Mom’s 3C’s Mologutal (South Indian Vegetable Lentil Stew),Another one of my family’s trademarks. There are several versions of vegetable-coconut stews native to south India, and this is one of my favourites. Feel free to substitute the carrots and cucumbers with a combination of vegetables, like zucchini, squash, pumpkin, etc. but remember to adjust the cooking times accordingly. Freshly grated coconut adds a special flavour to this recipe, so use that if possible.,Anu, methinks your mom is a magician; a kitchen queen! Please tell her I said so:) I made this for lunch this afternoon, scaled it down to 2 servings and I had both! I had 1 serving with 2 slices of bread and loved it so much that I had the other serving with rice. I poured it onto white Basmati rice and topped it with a dollop of low-fat plain yogurt – yummy! I licked my fingers clean:) Thank you for making my Diwali so special with this beautiful recipe. May Goddess Lakshmi always smile upon you and your family.
