Tomato Curry with Coconut Milk – Simple Kerala Style

This Tomato Curry with Coconut milk is one of those recipes I fall back on… It’s quite yummy and quick to prepare too!

God knows the troubles we face every day deciding what to cook for our families. I usually take more time to decide what to cook than I actually take to cook it! Who knows this feeling? Some days I will get sidetracked with ‘other stuff’. Yes… Kids, Husband, Outings, Cleaning. And then I still need to get dinner ready.

What are my go-to recipes? Well, for the kids I might opt for the Tuna Curry and Tuna Fry that can be done in 10 minutes. (Recipe for Tuna Fry and Tuna curry ). If I have some flatbread on hand, I would go for the easy (Paneer Butter Masala Recipe).

Sometimes, I find that my pantry is running low on supplies. A quick glance in the fridge: I  almost always have tomatoes and of course what would my kitchen be without onions? Coconut milk is another thing that I always have handy… So my simple and satisfying Tomato curry with coconut milk is the answer! Honestly, nothing could be more simple. And it goes well with more than just rice. Try it with Upma or Kai Pathiri.  I love to have it with Gothambu Dosa (Instant Wheat Dosa) for breakfast, that way you can prepare breakfast real fast! I love to sleep late on Sundays .. so this is my favourite.

Very few ingredients, very little time..great results.
