''"On our trip to Kerala in India in the summer of 2009, we spent a few hours at Leelu's Homestay house (see Links), watching her making several different curries and taking copious notes. Then we sat down and ate a lovely lunch of this one, served with [[Chapatis]], [[Pachadi]], [[Pumpkin Curry]] and Potato Thoran. This is delicious, a succulent, flavoursome dish, with a perfect balance between sweet and sour. We've made it with beef too, and it was equally gorgeous.
 
Generally Keralans use a much lighter version of the [[Coconut milk|coconut milk]] we buy in tins in the UK. We've found that if you buy the reduced [[Fat|fat]] [[Coconut|coconut]] [[Milk|milk]], open the can without shaking it, pour off the liquid part and use that, it works well. Then you can dilute the remaining thicker half with a little water and [[Freeze|freeze]] it for next time. We've also recently found Maggi powdered coconut to be excellent for making this curry, though the packet instructions are a little heavy handed; we found 35 g of powder to 300 mls of water to be perfect"''
