Asparagus Curry -Sri Lankan Style

     I am still enjoying the abundance of asparagus while it is in season.  I have paired asparagus with pasta, with eggs in a frittata and now it's time for the asparagus to meet curry.  This curry exceeded my expectations. I have never eaten curried asparagus, but I don't see why because it is simply delicious.  This dish paired wonderfully with a mild lentil curry and rice. I used coconut milk and made it vegan so I enjoyed a completely vegan lunch. I am not a vegetarian, but eating curry makes vegetarianism or veganism very easy.  Vegetables, Spices and Coconut milk... otherwise known as win, win, win! :)



    Ingredients:  
    1lb of fresh asparagus sliced
    12-15 curry leaves
    1 medium onion chopped
    2 green chilies sliced (seeded for less heat)
    1 cinnamon stick
    1tsp of fennugreek seeds
    1 tsp of mustard seeds
    1 tsp of cumin seeds
    1/2 tsp of sugar
    1/4 tsp of turmeric powder
    Red chili powder (to taste)
    1/2Tbs of curry powder
    salt to taste
    1/2 tsp of vinegar (optional)
    1cup of coconut milk (or cow's milk if you prefer)
    1/4 cup of water



    Heat 1 Tbs of canola oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.  Once heated, add the onions, chilies, curry leaves, cinnamon stick and fenugreek seeds.   Fry for a few minutes until onions become tender.
    Next add your cumin and mustard seeds.  Fry for another few minutes.

    Then add the asparagus and saute for 2 minutes.  Next and your dry spices and cook for 30-45 seconds.







    Add the coconut milk and water.  Cook for 5-7 minutes until the asparagus is tender and the gravy has mostly been absorbed by the asparagus.  Taste for seasoning and serve. Enjoy.
