Vegetable Stew- a normal day delicacy..

Vegetable stew is a perfect accompaniment with appam, chapatis and so many other breakfast items. Stew can be made with chicken and mutton as well. This mild and creamy curry can be made very easily.



I learnt this from one of my close friends. After marriage, I was not very good at cooking and my friend helped me with this easy and simple curry for chapatis. In this recipe, instead of coconut milk,we can also add regular milk and an amazing curry will be ready within minutes.




I love the subtle flavors and also the thick and creamy gravy. With simple ingredients we can make a dish which will be loved by all. So, without wasting any time I am into the recipe.

Ingredients:

  1. Carrots (chopped)- 2 nos
  2. Potatoes (chopped)- 2 nos
  3. Onions (cubed)- 1no
  4. Green peas- ½ cup
  5. Ginger (crushed)- 1 tbsp
  6. Peppercorns- 1 tbsp
  7. Curry leaves- few
  8. Coconut milk- ½ cup
  9. Cloves- 2 nos
  10. Cinnamon- 1 small stick
Method:
  1. Boil the vegetables, ginger and peppercorns in pressure cooker by adding little salt and keep this aside.
  2. When the pressure is gone add the spices and let it cook till all the water gets evaporated.
  3. In this add the coconut milk and curry leaves. Simmer for one minute and serve this with appam, idiyappam or with chapathi.
