Olan for a birthday feast

Ingredients

• 1/4 kilogram Yellow pumpkin
• 1/4 Kg cucumber White / kumbalanga
• 4 Green chillies
• 1 Handful Red lobia / vanpayar cooked
• Curry leaves
• 3/4 cup Coconut milk
• Coconut oil

Steps

1. After cutting the yellow pumpkin and white cucumber into 1/2 inch thick squares, boil them in a vessel with sliced green chillies and very little water.
2. When the vegetables are cooked and soft, add the boiled red lobia and cook for two minutes.
3. Finally add coconut milk and bring it to a boil. Switch off the heat as soon as bubbles appear, otherwise the coconut milk will curdle.

5. Put the lid on and wait ten minutes before serving.
