This recipe is one of the easy stews from Kerala. I make this recipe with regular organic coconut milk. Thai Kitchen is the best brand of coconut milk, or Trader Joe's organic coconut milk is a close substitute. You can change the vegetables based upon what you have in the refrigerator. If you want to substitute chicken, then red meat or pork works...
