Ingredients
Instructions
  1. First, julienne the ginger and crush it in a mortar and pestle. In a pot, put the carrots and potatoes. Add 1/2 tsp salt and cover with water to cook the vegetables. Cover and cook for 10 to 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender but not mushy.
  2. Smash a quarter of the potatoes with a fork. This will thicken the gravy. Add the onions, green chiles and ginger. Tear up a sprig of curry leaves. Add 1 tsp salt and coconut milk. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes until the onions are soft.
  3. When the onions are soft, taste and add more salt if you need to. Add the green peas, I let frozen peas thaw while I prepare the other ingredients so they don’t need any time to cook. Tear up some more curry leaves and add a tsp of coconut oil. The smell of this stew is amazing. Leave the stew aside, covered for an hour. It tastes best as it sits.
