It’s a special evening. After months, my husband is coming home and I wanted to cook something really exotic. I have never heard him complain about anything in life, especially food. But since a while, he has been constantly ‘hinting’ me that he is missing the food I prepare.

Prawn Stew

Whenever I ask him about his lunch or dinner plans, it’s always the same answer- Roti and Dal. My heart goes out for him then. And hence I decided to prepare something that reminds him of home.

Prawn Stew1

Ha, the delicious, creamy coconut curry is scrumptious and the pleasant and mildly spicy stew is always a favorite.

Remember the Indonesian Chicken Curry, Egg curry in Coconut milk or Chicken Stew from before? The base ingredient to these curries is coconut milk. Serve hot with steamed rice or Appam and you will not be disappointed.

    Kerala cooking is one of my favourites thanks to the coconut milk flavour 🙂 Vegetarian though so I am guessing the closest this would come to is mor kootaan , without the ginger garlic paste, of course.

      Ignore the prawns and you can make this curry only with potatoes. That’s my Mom’s go to dish for breakfasts! 🙂
