Healthy eating is now a good deal more popular than in the past and rightfully so. The overall economy is impacted by the number of individuals who are dealing with health problems such as high blood pressure, which is directly related to poor eating habits. No matter where you look, people are encouraging you to live a healthier lifestyle but then again, you are also being encouraged to rely on convenience foods that can affect your health in a terrible way. It is likely that many people assume it will take a lot of effort to eat a healthy diet or that they have to make a large scale change to how they live. It is possible, however, to make several small changes that can start to make a difference to our day-to-day eating habits.
Initially, you should be extremely careful when food shopping that you don’t unthinkingly put things in your shopping cart that you don’t want to eat. For example, did you ever think to check how much sugar and salt are in your preferred cereal? Consuming a bowl of oatmeal will supply you with the energy to face the day while protecting your heart at the same time. By putting in fresh fruit, you can give your oatmeal a better flavor and, before you know it, you will have made a healthy change to your diet.
To sum up, it is easy to begin to make healthy eating a regular part of your daily lifestyle.

Steps to make Vegetable Stew:
- Heat the pot/pan. Add oil. Keep heat to medium. You can test the heat by dropping a piece of onion in the oil. Once it begins to sizzle, the temperature is just right.
- Add the coarsely ground spices, followed by the onions. Saute it lightly. Once the onion starts changing color, add the green chillies and chopped ginger.
- As soon as onions become pink add the potatoes. Keep sauting. After 2 minutes add the carrots, followed by the green peas and finally the cauliflower. The trick is not to over cook or burn the veggies, and to get them well coated with the spices.
- Throw in the curry leaves. Mix well and add a cup of water, or as much needed to cover three fourth of the cooking vegetables. Cook covered for 3-4 minutes. Check for the texture of the carrot. It should be mildly tender, but should not get mashed.
- Add the salt. Mix well.
- Now add the coconut milk. I used store bought canned coconut milk. The real cooking of the vegetables should be in this milk. Cook in medium flame till you see the first bubble. Immediately lower the flame, cover and cook in low flame for another 8-10 minutes. The milk should not bubble or froth up. If this happens, the cream from the milk will crack up, gravy will become thin and runny, and the true essence of the stew will be lost. Once done, you can turn off the gas.
- In a separate pan, heat up the coconut oil for the garnish.Add the cashews if you are using them. Once mildly fried, add the shallots and saute well till they become soft and pink. Turn heat off, and throw in the curry leaves. Add the crushed pepper, and top this garnish on the the cooking stew. Add the milk to this pan, wash out the remnants and pour it on to the stew.
