There were a couple of things that I changed from the recipe. The only kind of powder curry they sell out here is the yellow kind and the Mr. does not like that kind at all. So I picked up a box of the curry sauce mix that comes in a brick form. I did have to add a bit more than a tsp of the mix since (in my opinion) it isn't as strong as the powder stuff. As for the cabbage, I used your everyday green cabbage and it worked out beautifully in this dish. The recipe didn't specify which kind so that is what I used. I found this recipe to be extremely easy to make. You can cut all the vegetables ahead of time, store in a baggie in the refrigerator and then assemble the dish when you get home from work.
- 1 yam, peeled and cut into chunks
- 1/2 bell pepper, diced
- 1 c. broccoli florets
- 1 c. sliced mushrooms
- 2 c. shredded cabbage
- 1/4 onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 Tbsp. sesame oil
- 1 1/2 c. lite coconut milk
- 2 bay leaves
- 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
- 1 tsp. red curry powder
- In a small pot, boil the yam chunks in water until they are soft but not mushy.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, saute the vegetables in the oil for about 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, then cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Serve over a bed of rice

I'm with you there. I LOVE curry, especially coconut curry. Whenever I make or order any style of Asian food I go for the veggie dishes. American food has so much meat and cheese (which I also love), but it's refreshing to go green.

I just started exploring the wonderful world of curry! The coconut curry is my favorite, but I'm trying to branch out. Maybe I'll give this a whirl!
