Description

Ingredients

• 1lb/16oz/455g fresh spinach, washed, stemmed and roughly chopped
• 2 large potatoes, medium dice
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 1 green chilli
• 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 1 teaspoon turmeric, ground
• 1 teaspoon cumin, ground
• 1 teaspoon coriander, ground
• ½ teaspoon cayenne/red chilli powder
• 2 tablespoons dried fenugreek leaves (optional)
• 2 cups/470ml water, enough to cover potatoes to cook
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup/60ml oil, coconut, avocado or other neutral flavoured

Directions

• In a large pot, heat the oil on medium heat and brown the onions.
• Once the onions are lightly browned, add the garlic and ginger paste and cook for a minute until fragrant.
• Add the potatoes and toss in the oil and onions.
• Add the turmeric powder, ground cumin, ground coriander and red cayenne powder.
• Mix through into the potatoes.
• Allow the potatoes to sauté for about 5 minutes.
• Add enough water to cover the potatoes, cover and let potatoes cook, about 10-15 minutes.
• Once the potatoes are just tender, making sure there isnt too much water, add the spinach leaves and cover to allow spinach to wilt.
• The spinach leaves will release some water so you dont want too much water in the pan before adding the spinach, about a cup and half of water is acceptable.
• Once the spinach has cooked down and beginning to get tender, uncover and evaporate some, of the water.
• Add the green chilli and the fenugreek leaves, if using.
• Check for salt and adjust.
• How dry you want the curry is up to you.
• Since my children like rice with theirs, I keep it a bit fluid as you can see in the photos.
• If you like the curry drier, then add the spinach leaves when there is barely any water left after the potatoes are done.
• Serve as a side with rice or bread.
