  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder

  4. Cook Vegetables: Cover the pan and cook the vegetables over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are tender.

  • Vegetable Options: You can use any combination of vegetables you prefer or have on hand. Seasonal vegetables work well in this dish.
  • Coconut Milk: Full-fat coconut milk gives the curry a rich and creamy texture, but you can use light coconut milk for a lower-calorie option.
  • Serving Suggestion: Coconut Milk Curry pairs well with steamed basmati rice, quinoa, or gluten-free chapatis.
  • Storage Tip: Leftover Coconut Milk Curry can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
