• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 cup water
• 1.5 teaspoons salt

Directions

Step 1

Peel and cut the potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Peel the carrots and slice them into 1/4-inch rounds. Set aside.

Step 2

Finely dice the onion, mince the garlic cloves, and grate the ginger.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat.

Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for 1-2 minutes until aromatic.

Pour in the coconut milk and water. Stir to combine, making sure the spices are evenly distributed in the liquid.

Step 8

Add the cubed potatoes and sliced carrots to the skillet. Stir to ensure they are submerged in the curry sauce.

Season with salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid.

Simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes and carrots are tender and have absorbed the flavors of the curry.
