Potato Stew


The first thing that comes to mind when i think of stew is the morning smell of onion and curry leaves being sauted in ghee. How i loved to wake up to that smell. My mum used to make paper thin dosas with stew. That combination rocks. However i havent mastered the art of typical dosa, i dont know the batter never rises..Maybe its the climate here. Anyway that dint prevent me from making stew. Stew goes well with bread and chappathis and i dont mind having it with ghee rice as well, or just having stew alone..So here goes the recipe

3 Medium Potato
2 Onion
2 Chilly slit in half
1" ginger chopped
2 cloves
a small pc of cinnamon
1 cup coconut milk
salt to taste
pepper pwd to taste
2tbsp ghee
curry leaves to taste

Peel the potatoes and cut them in small cubes. Chop one onion and cut the other in long thin strips. Put potatoes, chopped onion, chilly,ginger,cloves,cinnamon and salt in a pan and add enough water to cover them and turn on the stove. Once the potatoes are boiled, mash the potatoes, not neccesarrily a clean paste, and add the coconut milk and bring to a boil. Off the stove, add some pepper powder and keep aside. In another pan add the ghee and fry the long thin strips of onion till they are brown. Then add the curry leaves and fry them slightly. Add this to the potato pan and voila u have the potato stew.

Have a grt time with the stew...
