Instructions
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into 2 cm cubes. Boil them for 8 minutes to partly cook them, then drain.
- Blanch the spinach for 2 minutes in boiling water, drain and blend into a purée.
- Heat the oil, toast the cumin seeds for 30 seconds, then add the sliced onion and fry until golden, 6 minutes.
- Add the crushed garlic, the turmeric and the chilli, then the diced tomato. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Add the potatoes to the pan and stir-fry for 3 minutes so they absorb the spices.
- Pour in the spinach purée, season with salt, cover and simmer for 12 minutes over low heat, stirring from time to time.
- Sprinkle with garam masala and serve hot.
Variations and tips
Fresh spinach version. For a brighter taste, add raw chopped spinach at the end of cooking instead of the purée.
