Let's Get Started

- While the rice is cooking, heat the coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent.
- Add the curry powder to the pan and stir well to coat the onion and garlic. Cook for another minute to toast the curry powder.
- Add the coconut milk to the pan and stir well to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Add the vegetables to the pan and stir well to coat in the curry mixture. Cover the pan and let simmer for 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
