Every once in a while, we test a new recipe that perfectly fits the bill. Of course, the first thing we want to do is share it with you. Thanks to my sister’s introduction, we discovered a perfectly balanced curry dish that works without coconut milk. It contains a healthy dose of Ayurvedic spices that most of us would benefit consuming more of without the whopping amounts of saturated fats in the deliciously creamy coconut milk. Come and make some curry with us!
The health news on coconut milk have been mixed. We love the taste, the nutritional profile and the fiber but are also aware of its high content of fat. In fact, more than 90% of the calories in coconut milk come from saturated fats. So we get suspicious, when a recipe asks for a can of that stuff. And unless you are on a paleo diet, most of us still try to somewhat reign in the fat content of what we eat on a regular basis. Add to this our strong conviction that we could use a lot more of the healing powers of Ayurvedic spices such as cumin, cardamom, coriander and turmeric and we get excited when we hear about making curry without the whopping serving of fat calories.
My sister made this fabulous dish when we all came together over the holidays and I loved it for its simplicity and versatility but was psyched for what was not on the list of ingredients. Give this curry a try. You can pre-mix the spices so you have them on hand whenever you feel like you could use an Ayurvedic kick in your kitchen. Let us know what you think. Come and cook with us!





Sounds delicious! >
