Micronesian Coconut Chicken Curry image

The combination of curry, coconut milk, ginger, garlic and all the vegetables was both sweet and spicy in the best imaginable way. The country's people are descended from the indigenous people, Melanesians, Filipino and Polynesian ancestors. As such, cuisine in this country reflects Spanish, Malay and Chinese cultures.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but this curry was surprisingly good. The coconut milk added a nice creaminess without being too overpowering.
