Time 1h20m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 1/2 lbs small red potatoes, scrubbed
1/4 cup water
2 lbs Baby Spinach
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
4 large garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and minced
2 jalapenos, minced with some seeds
3 large tomatoes, finely chopped
1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garam masala
3/4 cup low-fat plain yogurt
salt, as needed
cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Boil over moderate heat until tender when pierced with a knife, about 25 minutes. Drain and let cool, then halve the potatoes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large, deep skillet, bring the water to a boil. Working in batches, add the spinach by handfuls and cook over moderately high heat until wilted. Using tongs, transfer the spinach to a colander and repeat with the remaining spinach. Squeeze the spinach dry, then transfer it to a food processor and puree. Wipe out the skillet.
  • Heat the oil in the same skillet. Add the onion and cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until beginning to brown, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and jalapeños and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes and cilantro and cook over moderate heat until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Add the coriander, cumin, paprika and garam masala to the skillet and cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes.
  • Slowly stir in the yogurt. Add the potatoes and a large pinch of salt, cover and cook over moderately low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the pureed spinach and stir well. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes to blend the flavors. Season with salt. Transfer the potatoes and spinach to a platter or bowl, garnish with the cilantro leaves and serve.

INDIAN SPICED SPINACH WITH POTATOES



Indian Spiced Spinach With Potatoes image

This recipe is from Mridula Baljekar's 30 Minute Vegetarian Indian Cookbook. The leftovers make a great omelet filling, or eaten cold in a wrap. I usually forgo the dried chiles, and use a comparable amount of red pepper flakes.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 -4 tablespoons canola oil or 2 -4 tablespoons sunflower oil
3/4 teaspoon black mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon cumin seed
1 -2 dried red chilies, chopped or 1/4-1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2-1 yellow onion, finely diced
3 large garlic cloves, minced
1 small green chili pepper, seeded chopped (optional ingredient)
4 1/2 cups peeled cubed potatoes (1 inch cubes)
1/2-1 teaspoon salt, to taste
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
4 cups chopped fresh spinach

Steps:

  • Heat the oil over medium heat. When it's hot, add in the mustard seeds. When they start popping, add in the cumin seeds, then the chile/red pepper flakes. Stir for a few seconds. ( I sometimes have trouble with getting my mustard seeds to pop. I always suspect that it has to do with their age, but I'm only guessing there. If they don't pop in a reasonable amount of time, I just proceed. It's never affected the flavor of the finished dish).
  • Add the onion, garlic and green chile if you're using one. Stir fry these for 5 minutes, adjusting the heat down partway through the fry time.
  • Add the potatoes and increase the heat a little. Stir fry for 5 minutes, then cover, turn the heat back down a bit, and cook for 4 minutes. I lift the lid and give them a quick stir halfway through this time. The potatoes and onion will be starting to brown at this point.
  • Stir in the salt and spices. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan and continue to cook for 10 minutes. Give a quick stir after the first 5 minutes.
  • Add the spinach and increase the heat. Stir in the spinach as it wilts, then cover pan again, reduce heat again and let cook for another 7 minutes.
  • Remove the lid and test one of the potatoes, they should be cooked through at this point. (if not, recover and cook a bit longer) Reduce the heat a little and continue cooking to evaporate any remaining juices from the spinach. Stir frequently during this time to avoid sticking.

Tips

  • Brine the turkey for at least 12 hours. This will help to keep the turkey moist and flavorful. You can use a simple brine made with water, salt, and sugar.
  • Roast the turkey at a high temperature for the first 30 minutes. This will help to create a crispy skin. Then, reduce the temperature and continue to roast the turkey until it is cooked through.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the turkey. The turkey is cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the turkey rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. This will help to keep the juices in the turkey and prevent it from drying out.
  • Serve the turkey with your favorite sides. Some popular options include mashed potatoes, stuffing, and cranberry sauce.

Conclusion

Indian turkey with spinach and new potatoes is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The turkey is moist and tender, the spinach is creamy and flavorful, and the new potatoes are perfectly roasted. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
