Description

This is one of my favorite meals to order at Indian restaurants. While simmered, the potatoes soak up all of the sweet goodness of the coconut milk, while the spinach adds some nutritional benefits. If you typically shy away from Indian food because of the strong flavors, try this lighter dish, which is a nice transition into Indian cooking. There are many versions of this meal, but my husband licks his lips with this one!

Ingredients

  • 4 whole Large Potatoes, Cut Into Large Chunks
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • ¼ teaspoons Sea Salt
  • 1 whole Medium Onion, Thinly Sliced
  • 1 Tablespoon Vegan Butter
  • 1 teaspoon Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Turmeric
  • 1-½ teaspoon Ground Cumin
  • ½ Tablespoons Garam Masala
  • ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Ginger
  • ½ teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes
  • 1 can (13-14 Oz. Size) Coconut Milk
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • ¼ cups Raisins
  • 2 cups Spinach, Torn
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • 3 cups Cooked Rice
  • Optional Garnish:Mango Chutney

Preparation

1) Toss the potato chunks with the oil and salt until coated. Place on a baking sheet, in a 425 degree F oven, baking for 15 minutes, tossing to turn, and then baking for another 15 minutes. The potatoes will roast slightly, but will not be fully cooked.
2) Over medium heat, saute the onion in the butter and oil until onion is translucent, and slightly caramelized (about 4 minutes). Add turmeric, cumin, masala, cinnamon, ginger, and red pepper flakes, sauteing for an additional minute.
3) Stir together coconut milk and garlic until mixed. Set aside.
4) Add the roasted potatoes to the onion mixture, sauteing briefly to mix. Add coconut milk mixture, and raisins, and allow potatoes to simmer until completely softened (about 10 minutes). Once potatoes are soft, stir in spinach, salt and pepper (to taste). Serve over rice, with mango chutney (if desired) and enjoy!

One of my favorite recipes! I’ve been making it for several years now and it never fails to be delicious. It is especially warming in colder weather. I made it again tonight and decided to add carrots and split red lentils. (I really wanted this, but also wanted to use up some things I had hanging around.) It’s good without the mango chutney, but it amazing if you have it. Thanks for sharing!
