Time 46m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 potatoes, peeled and diced
2 carrots, diced
½ cup frozen corn kernels
½ cup frozen green peas
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, finely sliced
1 (14.4 ounce) can chopped tomatoes with juice
1 (14.5 ounce) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15.5 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

½ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon chili powder, or more to taste
½ teaspoon cumin
½ teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon mustard seed
1 pinch salt to taste
1 (13.5 ounce) can coconut milk

Steps:

  • Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Place the potatoes and carrots in the boiling water, and cook until softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the peas and corn to the boiling water, and turn off the heat. Wait 1 minute, and drain the vegetables. Cover to keep warm.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onions, and cook until the onions are transparent, 5 to 7 minutes. Combine the tomatoes, kidney beans, garbanzo beans, and water with the onions. Stir in the turmeric, chili powder, cumin, coriander, and mustard seed until blended. Season with salt to taste. Add the potatoes, carrots, peas, and corn. Turn the heat to high, and cook the vegetables 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Lower the heat to medium, and cook another 7 minutes.
  • Pour the coconut milk into the vegetable mixture. Stir and cook for just 3 minutes to prevent the milk from curdling or separating. Remove from the heat and serve.

Tips:

  • Fresh and colorful vegetables: Use a variety of fresh, vibrant vegetables to create a visually appealing and nutritious curry. Some great options include bell peppers, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, and green beans.
  • Balance of flavors: The key to a delicious vegetable curry is achieving a harmonious balance of flavors. Sweetness from fruits like pineapple or mango, acidity from tomatoes or tamarind, and a touch of heat from chili peppers work well together. Adjust the proportions of each ingredient to suit your taste preferences.
  • Choice of spices: Spices are essential for adding depth of flavor to the curry. Common spices used in vegetable curries include cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala. Experiment with different combinations and proportions to create a unique flavor profile.
  • Coconut milk or yogurt: Adding coconut milk or yogurt to the curry creates a rich and creamy texture. Coconut milk also adds a subtle sweetness, while yogurt provides a tangy flavor. Use full-fat coconut milk or yogurt for the best results.
  • Fresh herbs and garnishes: Fresh herbs like cilantro, basil, and mint add a burst of flavor and color to the curry. Use them as a garnish or stir them in just before serving. Additionally, garnishes like crispy fried onions or roasted nuts add a delightful textural contrast.

Conclusion:

With its vibrant colors, enticing aromas, and harmonious blend of flavors, vegetable curry is a culinary delight that caters to various dietary preferences and taste buds. Whether you prefer a mild or spicy curry, creamy or tangy sauce, or a combination of vegetables, the versatility of this dish allows for endless variations.
