Steps:
- To make yogurt sauce, peel and seed 2 cucumbers. Finely shred using a food processor, or finely dice by hand. Toss with salt and place in a colander. Allow to drain for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- Combine drained cucumbers, yogurt, scallions, garlic, black pepper, and cayenne in a bowl. Refrigerate until needed.
- While you prepare the cucumbers and sauce, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place potatoes on a baking sheet.
- Roast potatoes in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut eggplants in half lengthwise and place cut-sides down on a medium baking sheet. Add eggplant tray to the oven.
- Continue to roast eggplants and potatoes until tender and eggplants begin to brown, about 30 minutes more.
- Remove from heat and allow eggplant and potatoes to cool, 10 to 15 minutes. Peel eggplant (skin should pull off rather easily). Potatoes do not need to be peeled, but may be if you prefer. Chop eggplant and potatoes into large bite-sized cubes.
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and salt and cook until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add garam masala, ginger, and garlic and cook until spices are fragrant, about 1 minute. Add diced tomatoes with their liquid, vegetable broth, cubed potatoes, cubed eggplant, and jalapeno peppers. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Add peas and allow to simmer until peas are hot but still bright green, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in yogurt.
- Serve with cucumber yogurt sauce.

Categories Vegetable
Number Of Ingredients 14
Steps:
- Sweet Potato Fries: Pre heat oven to 425˚F with the racks in the middle. Prepare 2 half sheet pans (cookie sheets) with parchment or Silpat liners. Combine ghee (butter) with curry powder, cardamom, garam masala and cinnamon. Put sliced sweet potatoes on cookie sheet and toss with arrowroot powder. Drizzle butter mixture over the top of the potatoes and combine well with your hands. Sprinkle with some garlic salt and pepper. Toss again. Lay sweet potatoes out in a single layer with a small amount of space in between the potatoes. They need to have some breathing room so they do not steam. Bake for 15 minutes. Flip each fry with a pari of tongs and cook for another 10-15 minutes. Curry Aioli Dip: Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender and combine well. Adjust spices and seasonings to taste.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes like Red Bliss or Yukon Gold hold their shape well and won't disintegrate in the curry. Avoid starchy potatoes like Russets, as they tend to become mushy.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for 1-inch cubes or wedges.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too many potatoes to the pan, they won't brown properly. Cook them in batches if necessary.
- Brown the potatoes before adding the sauce: This will give them a nice caramelized flavor.
- Use a good quality curry powder: The curry powder is the key ingredient in this dish, so make sure you use a good one. Look for a powder that is fragrant and has a deep, rich color.
- Don't skimp on the spices: The spices are what give this curry its flavor, so don't be afraid to use plenty of them. Adjust the amount to your own taste.
- Simmer the curry for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve with rice or naan bread: This curry is traditionally served with rice or naan bread, but it can also be served with quinoa, couscous, or your favorite side dish.
Conclusion:
This Indian potato curry is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover potatoes. With its combination of spices, creamy coconut milk, and tender potatoes, this curry is sure to please everyone at the table.
