Kerala (meaning, land of coconuts) is a south Indian state known for its beautiful pristine beaches and backwaters. Seafood and coconut based recipes are plenty in Kerala. Most of the inhabitants of Kerala are Christian, and eating meat is prevalent in this region. This recipe reminds me of Chicken Pot Pie, which is my favorite American entree.
