- Author's Notes: This is from the Taj at Madras and if desired fish and coconut, absolutely delicious.
- The same recipe can be done with chicken and lamb as well. The original recipe called for one fresh grated coconut or possibly 2 \)12 c. of dessicated coconut. The lowfat milk of the coconut is extracted in two stages and are added in place of the cans of lowfat milk in the recipe above. The coconut is added in the ghee with the onions and the spice paste in the initial frying stage to make a richer gravy.
