Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 large tomato, or about 3 canned plum tomatoes, chopped
6 garlic cloves, peeled
1/2-inch fresh ginger, peeled
1-inch piece cinnamon
2 cloves
2 green cardamom pods
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 medium onion, ends trimmed, cut into thin half moons
2 medium potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons garam masala
3 cups frozen peas
2 tablespoons cream
fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a blender, combine the tomato, garlic, and ginger. Puree until smooth. Set aside.
  • In a large cast-iron skillet set over medium heat, add the cinnamon, clove, and cardamom. Dry roast, stirring constantly, until very fragrant, about one minute. Pour in the canola oil, and add in the cumin seeds. When the cumin seeds start to sizzle, add the onions. Stir well until the onions are evenly coated with the fragrant oil. Turn the heat to medium-high, and cook until the onions are just starting to brown, two to four minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • Add the cubed potatoes, and cook, stirring often, for three minutes. Pour in the contents of the blender, and stir until incorporated. Then add the salt, turmeric, cayenne pepper, and 1/4 cup of water. Stir until everything is combined, and then reduce heat to medium. Cook at a steady simmer, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are starting to become tender, and the oil starts to separate from the sauce, about 12 minutes. You may need to turn the heat down to low to keep it from boiling.
  • Pour in two more cups of water and the peas. Maintain a simmer until the potatoes are completely cooked, about 10 minutes. Ad the cream and garam masala, and simmer gently for an additional two minutes. Season to taste with more salt, if necessary. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.

Time 30m

Yield 1 bowl, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup ghee
1 tablespoon scraped finely chopped fresh ginger
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
3 med.-sized firm ripe tomatoes (washed and coarsely chopped)
3 tablespoons finely chopped coriander (cilantro)
2 cups fresh green peas (or sub 2 10 oz. pkgs. frozen peas)
1 large potato, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon garam masala

Steps:

  • In a heavy 2-3 quart sauce pan, heat the ghee over high heat until a drop of water flicked into it splutters instantly. Stir in the ginger and garlic, then add the onions and salt. Lower the heat to moderate and, stirring constantly add the cumin, turmeric and red pepper. Stir in tomatoes and 2 Tblsp. of coriander. Still stirring, cook briskly for 5 minutes, until most of the liquid in the pan evaporates and the mixture is thick enough to draw away from the sides and bottom of the pan in a dense mass. Drop in the peas and potatoes and turn them about with the spoon until they are evenly coated with the tomato mixture.
  • Stir in the water, bring to a boil over high heat, cover tightly, and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until the peas and potatoes are tender but still intact. Taste for seasonings and serve at once, sprinkled with the remaining Tblsp. coriander and masala.
