There is a creamy delicious dish prepared in Tamilnadu known as Paal Kootu.
Paal is Tamil word for milk and kootu means a thick gravy. I learnt
this dish from my friend. This dish is prepared using any vegetable like
pumpkin,bottle gourd,chayote or snake gourd. But I always love this
dish prepared from pumpkin.
This dish is even prepared by combining coconut milk and milk.

Method-
Boil chopped pumpkin pieces in water along with salt. Then add milk to
this. Cook till the pumpkins turn soft. Now add the ground paste and
simmer in mild heat for two minutes till the ingredients blend well. At
last add the seasoning and switch off.
