Creamy vegetable kurma

Vegetable Kurma is authentic recipe in every state . Kerala menu is blunt without this recipe in their menu. A normal morning breakfast includes varieties to choose from like appams, puttu , ishtu curry ( coconut based vegetable curry) kadala curry , etc. 

Today I am posting a curry found at all weddings. This creamy vegetable curry is served with null puttu or porottas. A wide variety of vegetables are added like carrots, cauliflower, potato,green peas that makes this curry really rich.  Coconut and cream makes it all the more creamy and I always try to make my curries a little more creamy by either adding some cream or coconut milk or even sometimes milk .
U can omit the cream but the taste would differ a little . Here's the recipe.
