Kozhi Moilee and Potatoes & Peas with Cumin

The recipe for the Kerala-style chicken curry (Kozhi Moilee) is here.

 

Potatoes & Peas with Cumin

2 Medium Potatoes

1/2 cup peas

1 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp ground cumin

1 tbs curry paste

1/2 cup water + 2 tbs

1/4 tsp salt

 

Cut the potatoes into a medium sized dice. Saute the cumin seeds and ground cumin in some oil for about 1 minute over medium heat.

 

Add the potatoes and stir to coat.

 

Add the 1/2 cup water, salt and curry paste. Stir to combine. Cover and turn heat to low.

 

After 15 minutes add 2tbs water and peas. Heat on low until the peas are cooked through (or warm if using frozen).

 

I used 3 smallish Yukon Gold potatoes, which came to about 3 cups. I also used a cup of peas, because I like peas. For the curry paste, I used a yellow curry paste of mild spice.

 

The potatoes and peas were good, but next time I will use a spicier curry. The chicken curry was awesome.

 

Done
