  Preparation time: 45 minutes

  It's more interesting to combine spices than to use "curry powder."

  In a large skillet begin cooking onions and garlic in butter. After a
  few minutes add salt and spices. When onions are soft, add celery and
  mushrooms. You may want to add 1/2 cup water at this point, top help
  prevent sticking (and to make a nice broth.) Mix well, cover, and
  simmer about 5-8 minutes (low heat.)

  When celery is slightly tender, add apples and tomatoes (both in 1
  1/2" slices) and coconut. Mix and continue cooking until everything
  is just tender, not too mushy. (Additional water might be needed.)
  Turn off heat. Add honey and lemon juice; mix and let sit, covered.

  Serve curry after it has sat for a few minutes. It taste best when
  served over rice, with sauteed almonds on top.
