Introduction

There are two ways to make this delicious Mughlai dish. One is creamy, like a curry, and the other is more reminiscent of traditional dry Indian dishes such as Aloo Gobi or Aloo Matar.

Ingredients

    vegetable broth
    ¼ onion, sliced
    5 garlic cloves, minced
    1 tsp ground coriander
    ½ tsp ground cumin
    cayenne pepper,as desired
    ¼ tsp turmeric
    1 potato, skinned and diced
    2-3 carrots, skinned and sliced
    ½ c tomato sauce
    ½ c frozen peas
    ¼ tsp garam masala

    For the curry version:
    ½ c nondairy milk
    1⁄8 tsp coriander
    ½ tsp ground cumin
    cayenne, to taste

Directions

Line a medium pot with a thin layer of vegetable broth and sauté onions and garlic over high heat until the onions are translucent, garlic is tender and the liquid has evaporated — about two minutes. Add more broth to reline the pot, plus potato and carrots. Sauté for another three minutes, then add coriander, cumin, cayenne as desired, and a couple dashes of turmeric, stirring to combine. Add tomato sauce, bring to a boil, and reduce to low. Cover and simmer until vegetables are fork-tender, adding additional broth as necessary, about five to ten more minutes. (You always want a thin layer of wetness on the bot¬tom. Keep the coating around the veggies wet). Add peas, stir to combine, and heat for another minute or two to warm up the peas. Add 1/4 tsp garam ma¬sala and stir to combine. Add salt to taste if desired. Taste, adding more garam masala or more cayenne (if you want it HOT) and serve.

For a creamy curry, stir in 1/2 c nondairy milk, plus 1/8 tsp coriander and 1/8 tsp cumin, and more salt or cayenne (or garam masala — I tend to add another 1/4 tsp) if desired.
