I haven't heard of cooking vegetables in coconut milk in this way, but it sounds delicious to me! last blog post: Recipe for Roasted Yellow Summer Squash with Sage-Pecan Pesto

Looks great, and I bet it tasted even better. I could certainly tuck into a bowl like that.

Speaking of simmering things in coconut, this post reminded me of Eating Asia’s one on Buntaa Binuntaan:

Your childhood reason for not eating this is hilarious. I love the idea of eggplant and green beans simmered in coconut milk. I can't imagine leaving out the chillies.... As for fermented shrimp paste, we've started substituting with anchovies. Sure, they aren't quite the same because they're missing the fermentation but they do offer a not unsimilar flavour. last blog post: no rise focaccia: turn it into flatbread (BBBwB)

I love anything with coconut milk. Or anything with coconut for that matter. We usually have squash with then ginataang gulay so it never looked like the Joker! Dried fish would work well instead of the stinky alamang. last blog post: Mushroom season in our backyard

Arundathi – Shrimp paste can be scary stuff

Christie – I thought about that – Ran out of red chilies, though. Salmon sounds good simmered in coconut milk. I always overcook that fish.

Tom – I was a kid with an overly active imagination I guess.

Kat – I’m glad I got over that little phobia. I never enjoyed mcdonalds.

Oggi – Thanks!

Tanna – The guy was just so creepy. And yet he was wearing bright colors.

Fearless – I love it when the eggplants soak up the coconut milk like a sponge.

Alexa – And thanks for droopping by!

Js – Me, too. I used to always associate it with dessert

Christine – Zucchini sounds like a good idea, too.

Paula – Japanese eggplants would be perfect for this. Hope it works out with anchovies.

Oh my gosh, I just harvested a bunch of Japanese eggplants and was wondering what I should make with them! Ta Da! I would love to use the shrimp paste, but don't have any, so I'll have to try the anchovy route. This looks terrific, thanks for posting it! last blog post: I'll Stop The World and Melt With You -- Tuna Melts (Second Try At Posting!)

These veggies look so good. I have all of the ingredients on hand, except green beans to make this dish. I'll substitute zucchini. Thanks for sharing. last blog post: 148. Fried vegetables - Recipe

LOL Yes, they do remind one of the Joker, now that you mentioned it. I wasn't too big on coconut milk in savoury dishes when I was growing up, but I am warming up to it now. Though I could inhale down bowls of ginataan. last blog post: Mama's Ampalaya (Bitter Melon)
