Ingredients

• 4 medium potatoes
• 1 large onion
• 3 large garlic cloves
• 1 inch piece ginger
• 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder
• 1 14 oz can canned diced tomatoes
• 1 14 oz can coconut milk
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup water

Directions

Step 1

Peel and cut the potatoes into medium-sized cubes.

Step 2

Finely chop the onion and cilantro. Mince the garlic and ginger.

Step 3

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they are golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in the cumin, coriander, turmeric, and red chili powder. Fry for 1 minute until the spices release their aroma.

Step 6

Add diced tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes are softened and the oil begins to separate, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 7

Mix in the potato cubes and stir to coat them in the spice mixture.

Step 8

Pour in the coconut milk and water, bringing the mixture to a boil. Season with salt.

Step 9

Lower the heat to a simmer and cover the pan. Cook the potatoes until they are tender, about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 10

Once the potatoes are cooked through, uncover, increase the heat slightly, and reduce the curry until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

Step 12

Serve the nut-free potato curry hot with rice or your favorite bread.
