<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\nI have always been drawn to the Fall harvest. The thought of a warm house with pots of local fare on a hot stove is comforting. And right now I am excited about the green tomatoes. For while I am surrounded by them for a good portion of the year, it is now that they really seem like the thing to cook. I do suggest though, that you find yourself some coconut milk. It makes for a smooth and creamy curry and adds a nice flavor. Another suggestion for this dish is to cut the veggies all different ways to enhance its texture.

A favorite meal of mine is green tomato curry over rice. We put a version of it in our October 17, 2007 newsletter<\/a>. The thing about this recipe, is that there are lots of options for what you can add, so you can make it with whatever you have on hand. Don’t have curry paste, use curry powder. Don’t have eggplant, skip it and add more peppers and leeks. Add some diced potatoes or radishes or kohlrabi.<\/p>\n
2 to 3 green tomatoes
2 green peppers
3 cloves garlic, chopped fine
2 tbsp sesame oil
1 to 2 <\/span>tbsp curry powder or green curry sauce
