Potato & Egg Curry – Aloo Dimer Djol

Ingredients

• 200g (7 oz) new potatoes, halved
• 30ml (2 tbsp) groundnut oil
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 1 green finger chilli, finely chopped
• 5ml (1 tsp) root ginger, peeled and finely grated
• 1.25ml (¼ tsp) garam masala
• 5ml (1 tsp) ground turmeric
• 2.5ml (½ tsp) ground cumin
• 1.25ml (¼ tsp) salt
• 2 boiled eggs
• coriander leaves (cilantro), finely chopped

1. Boil the potatoes until tender. Drain.
2. Place the onion in the pan and sauté over a low heat for 10 minutes or until golden brown, sweet and cooked. Add the chilli and ginger and fry for a minute. Add the garam masala, turmeric and cumin and stir fry for a minute. Add the potatoes, eggs and salt. Fry for a few minutes, stirring to make sure the potatoes and eggs are covered in the spicy mixture. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve immediately.

Notes

• Omit the chilli if you don’t like your curries very hot.
• You can use standard potatoes if you like. Just peel them and cut in even sized pieces.
