  • Yield4 people 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 Tbsp cooking oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 3/4 Tbsp Chutney (see instructions below)
    • 4 garlic heads, 5 serrano chili , 2 medium sized gingers, 1 bunch cilantro, 3/4 cup shredded coconut
  • 3 medium ripe tomatoes, pureed
  • 5 medium Russet potatoes, cut into bite-size
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 2 (15 oz) cans organic red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup coconut milk (optional)
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 cups water (plus more as needed)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the “Chutney” 
    1. Peel ginger and garlic heads
    2. Wash and dry cilantro and serrano chili 
    3. Add all the Chutney ingredients together in a food processor and blend well. 
  2. In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent and fragrant.
  3. Stir in the chutney and pureed tomatoes. Cook for about 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  4. Add the ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, paprika, and salt. Let the mixture simmer for another 2 minutes to bloom the spices.
  5. Add the potatoes and kidney beans and mix well. Add 2 cups of hot water. Bring to a gentle boil, then cover and cook for about 10 minutes, or until the potatoes begin to soften.
  6. Add the coconut milk (optional) and continue to simmer for another 20 minutes. If the curry starts to get too thick, add a bit more water to reach your desired consistency.
  7. After 20 minutes, squeeze in the lemon juice. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for a final 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  8. Taste and adjust salt or seasoning if needed.
