    Good mild curry flavor that melds nicely with the coconut milk base. Next time I would add a little extra red curry, leave the lid off the simmering sauce to let it reduce more and cut all the veggies closer to the same size. I also would not add all the veggies at once. The carrots , zucchini and red peppers should go in first followed by the eggplant and the Napa cabbage last so that it doesn't over cook. All in all it was a good, fairly fast entree for a weeknight dinner and my husband really liked it.
