Potato White Curry

A simple, simmered curry with mellow, well-blended flavours. This one comes together quickly.

  • 1 lb. potatoes
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon fenugreek seeds
  • 3 shallots
  • 2 hot peppers (chilies or jalapeños)
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • juice of 1 lime

Directions:

Peel potatoes and cut into 1 inch cubes.
Slice shallots.
Mince hot peppers.
Combine all ingredients except coconut milk and lime juice in a large pot.
Bring curry to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are just tender (about 15 minutes).

When the curry returns to a boil, remove from heat and stir in the lime juice.
Serve immediately.
