This tasty stew is a perfect family meal. Both vegetarians and meat-eaters should include it in their diets because it is full of healthy fats that can help improve everyone’s health. If you are not vegetarian, you can also add in some chicken or tofu in order to increase the protein content.
THE RECIPE:
You will need:
- 2 tbsps. of coconut oil
- 1 tsp of turmeric powder
- 2 tbsps. of ginger paste
- 1 tsp of sea salt
- 1 tbsp. of cumin powder
- 1 tbsp. of coriander powder
- 2 tbsps. of chopped cilantro
- 1 can of full-fat, unsweetened coconut milk

- After that, add the cumin seeds in the pot and stir until they start to sputter. Then add the onions and cook for another minute or two, and then, add the tomatoes, and continue stirring for a few more minutes (or until the tomatoes soften).
- Add the rest of the ingredients and stir for one more minute. Then, cover the pan and simmer for about 15 minutes, while stirring every 5 minutes in order to prevent the stew from burning.
