Creamy Vegetable Curry
This dish would traditionally be made creamy by the addition of coconut milk. However, because of the saturated fat in coconut milk, it is not one of our recommended foods. You can make a perfectly acceptable substitute with unsweetened non-dairy milk and a bit of coconut extract.
