Indian Asparagus image

Don't be fooled by the strange sound of coconut with asparagus. Because of the spices and hot green chillies these ingredients combine to create a wonderful spicy asparagus treat. This is a popular preparation of asparagus in Southern parts of India. (Service with rice and rasam or saambaar, pappadum and yogurt.)

I didn't have any asparagus on hand, so I used green beans instead. They turned out great! I will definitely be making this recipe again, with asparagus next time.

The asparagus was a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this recipe again, but I will cook the asparagus for a shorter amount of time next time.
