Potato Curry
Like every potato dish, this Potato Curry is also on my list of favourite dishes. I am obsessed with potatoes. When I was younger, not that I am old, I needed to eat a packet of chips/crisps almost everyday. It was my comfort food. I still wish I could eat it everyday but my heart and my hips won’t allow me to. If you love potatoes, like me, then this dish is perfect for you. I love that it is so easy to put together too.
Ingredients for the Potato Curry
For this dish you will need potatoes and I am Indian so I will always recommend Up to Date Potatoes. It’s those gravy soaking, melting potatoes, like Indians call it. You cannot have a potato curry with hard potatoes, it just doesn’t work, trust me on this. If you are not in South Africa then remember up to date is a floury potato. So look for a floury potato. This floury potato has a low moisture content and a high starch content. You will also need a few spices, such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, chilli powder and Garam Masala. The secret ingredient is dried methi or fenugreek leaves. Curry leaf, dry chillies, ginger garlic paste, tomato and some fresh coriander is all the other ingredients you will need.
How to cook the curry
The potatoes are boiled until soft. You then cook the spices and tomato. Add the potatoes and some water and you have a mouthwatering potato curry.
There are many different versions of a potato curry and I have a few on my blog too. And every one tastes different. This one goes really well with some roti and mango pickle or atcha and some fresh butter roti.
