Okra / Lady's Finger Coconut Milk Curry


Okra is rich in nutrition, but that's not the only reason I resort to okra dishes these days. It is one of the vegetables that is available fresh in the Indian grocery stores throughout the year. The curry was not at all slimy. The moment I added the tamarind juice, the sliminess disappeared. The curry tasted delicious too.

Green Peas Masala

This is the Kerala version of green peas masala where coconut milk is used to get rich creamy gravy. Cream or whole milk or cashew nut paste also can be used, while some prefer the plain dish without any added creaminess. This can be made with either fresh (dry) or frozen green peas (I prefer fresh)  and is usually served with chapathi, roti, parotta, idiyappam, appam etc.

This is a very similar version of vegetable stew that my mom makes. Here turmeric is added and hence the color. Vegetables, along with onion, ginger and green chilli, are cooked first and garam masala (cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, star anise), coconut mik or whole milk are added towards the end. Finally, stew is tempered with mustard seeds, whole red pepper, Malabar leaves (Indian bay leaves) and curry leaves.
