Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium (about 800g) potatoes
- 1 large onion
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece ginger
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 0.25 cup freshly chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or saucepan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
Mix in the tomato paste, curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to bloom the spices.
Add the cubed potatoes to the pan and stir to coat them with the spice mixture.
Pour in the vegetable broth, bring to a gentle simmer, and cover with a lid.
Cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and the sauce has thickened.
Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish or with steamed rice or naan for a complete meal.
