Curry in a Jiffy..

Coconut Milk Rasam

On days when I am just too lazy to cook, this curry saves my day.It is so quick and fast yet unbelievably tasty. It works best with fried fish or just some plain old pickle.




Ingredients:

Garlic (Sliced ) – 10
Red Chillies – 5-6
Curry Leaves – 8
Turmeric Powder – ½ Tsp
Tamarind paste – 1 Tsp
Coconut Milk – 2 Cups
Water – ½ Cup
Salt to taste


In a kadai, add oil. When hot, add mustard seeds, curry leaves, red chillies and garlic. Take care not to burn the garlic. When the garlic turns golden brown, add the coconut milk.

In ½ cup water, dilute the tamarind paste, mix well and add this to the coconut milk. When the curry makes to a boil, add salt and turmeric powder.

Take care not to boil the curry too much, as coconut milk splits up when it is boiled repeatedly. Serve hot with rice.
