SCALLOPED POTATOES WITH COCONUT MILK AND CHILIES

Scalloped Potatoes With Coconut Milk and Chilies image

An Indian-inspired version of the French classic, layered with eye-opening flavors (yes, it hurts so good), this is a great side dish with any of the meat offerings in this book. I love to serve it for Sunday brunch, as a piquant alternative to hash browns.

Ingredients

1 can (13.5 ounces) unsweetened coconut milk
2 tablespoons Balchao Masala
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher or sea salt
Vegetable cooking spray
1 pound russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, cut crosswise or lengthwise (depending on their size) into 1/4-inch-thick slices, and submerged in a bowl of cold water to prevent browning
4 scallions (green tops and white bulbs), thinly sliced crosswise
8 to 10 medium-size to large fresh curry leaves

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Whisk the coconut milk, masala, and salt together in a small bowl.
Lightly spray a casserole dish with cooking spray. Drain the potatoes. Cover the bottom of the casserole with a layer of potatoes, and sprinkle a third of the scallions over them. Stir the sauce (the masala tends to sink to the bottom, so a good stir helps to mix everything evenly) and drizzle a third of it over the layer. Repeat the layers of potatoes, scallions, and masala two more times, using up all the ingredients
Spread the curry leaves over the top layer. Cover the dish and bake until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 45 minutes.
Remove the cover and continue to bake until the potatoes are browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Then serve.

This was a great recipe! The potatoes were creamy and flavorful, and the coconut milk and chili added a nice touch of sweetness and heat. I will definitely be making this again.

This was a really easy and delicious recipe. I used regular milk instead of coconut milk, and it was still very good. The potatoes were cooked perfectly and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
