Coconut Curried Vegetable Stew Recipes

COCONUT CURRY VEGETABLE STEW

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large soup pot. Add the onion and garlic and sauté over medium heat until the onion is golden.
• Add the carrots, potatoes, and 2 cups water, and bring to a slow boil. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer gently for 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are about half tender.
• Add the cauliflower, simmer sauce, optional chiles, ginger, and coconut milk. Return to a simmer; add the green beans or asparagus. Continue to simmer gently, covered, until the vegetables are just tender, about 10 to 15 minutes longer.
• Mash some of the potatoes against the side of the pot with a wooden spoon to thicken the base. Stir in the spinach and cilantro and cook just until the spinach is wilted. The stew should have a thick consistency, with just enough liquid to warrant serving in bowls rather than on a plate.
• Serve at once. Garnish each serving with extra cilantro. Adjust the liquid with water or plant-based milk as the stew stands and thickens, and adjust the seasonings to taste.
