Thai Massaman Curry

I tried this curry in Thailand last year and I immediately fell in love with it. Trying something new felt good, especially since it had vegetables, spices and coconut milk in it. Below is a picture of the curry I had took from Ko Phi Phi in Thailand.
I do not know what the ingredients were exactly but I can say mine was equally delicious!
