  • Step 4: Add the tomatoes, yogurt and coconut milk. Stir over the heat until combined.

  • Step 5: NOTE: Must be a low heat so as the coconut milk does not curdle. See note below for cooking with coconut milk.

  • Step 6: Add the carrot's and simmer uncovered for five minutes.

  • Step 8: Stir in the remaining ingredients and simmer uncovered for 10-12 minutes.

  • Step 9: Serve when ready.

  • Step 10: NOTE: This is a vegetable curry and should not be overcooked ~ the vegetables to be slightly crisp.

  • Step 11: COCONUT MILK NOTE : While adding coconut milk, keep stirring. Stir frequently even while it cooks for a couple of minutes to avoid the curdling of milk. After adding coconut milk, keep the heat on low and do not let it boil. Let it simmer uncovered.
