Ingredients

• 500 grams potatoes
• 400 ml coconut milk
• 1 medium, chopped onion
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 1 inch, grated ginger
• 2 tablespoons curry powder

• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon salt

• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Peel and cube the potatoes into about 1-inch pieces. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the onions and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, and cayenne pepper. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the spices to release their aroma, stirring continuously.

Step 5

Add the cubed potatoes to the pot, stirring to coat them in the spice mixture.

Step 6

Pour in the coconut milk and water, stirring well to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and let the curry cook for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through.

Step 8

Stir occasionally and check the seasoning. Add salt and black pepper according to taste.

Step 9

Once the potatoes are cooked, remove the pot from the heat and let the curry rest for a few minutes.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 11

Serve hot with steamed rice or your choice of flatbread.
