Vegetable Coconut Curry at Avatar Grill in Salinas, California

Vegetable Coconut Curry at Avatar Indian Grill in Salinas, California by Ruth Paget 

Avatar Indian Grill in Salinas, California near Natividad Hospital serves vegetarian and meat-based dishes to the entire Salinas community thanks to delivery. 

I recently tried vegetable coconut curry made by sautéing onions and bell pepper with garlic, ginger, garam masala (curry powder), turmeric, and coriander. Once this mixture has simmered a few minutes, 

Avatar Undian Grill adds sliced cauliflower, broccoli, squash, peas, carrots, mushrooms, coconut milk, and maybe chicken broth to the pan and simmers everything for about half an hour. 

The delivery food arrives hot just as if it had just left the pan. 

I ate this savory curry over saffron rice with warm naan flatbread studded with cardamom bread. 

For something quick, healthy, delicious, and reasonably priced, Avatar Indian Grill in Salinas has some for almost everyone it seems on their exhaustive online menu. 

Bon Appétit!
