COCONUT MILK MASALA STEW

Thengai pal kuzhambu as is known in Tamilnadu is an excellent accompaniment with rice.This recipe is my hubby's grandmom's version and the taste too is yummy.Though it takes some time to prepare it is worth doing it.

Mixed vegetables carrot,
beans,brinjal,potato,tomato-1 cup
Tamarind extract-1/4 cup
Jaggery-a small piece
Oil-as required

To grind

Cardamon-2
Bay leaf-1
Asafoeida-a pinch
Turmeric powder-1/2 tsp

Method
Grate the coconut and extract milk thrice
Roast the ingredients to grind in little oil and grind to paste
With oil season the ingredients add all the veggies and saute well
When half done add the tamarind extract,salt and jaggery
Then add the masala paste to it
Add the third milk after 10 min
Then add the second milk and boil for 5 min
