6-8medium-sized potatoes
8cupsof vegetable stock or 1 tbsp vegetable stock paste and 8 cups of water
1can coconut milk
large handfuls of fresh cilantro to garnish
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
To the pot, add the onion and garlic. Sweat/cook them for 5-7 minutes or until translucent and fragrant. You may need to reduce heat to low depending on your stovetop but you do not want the onions to brown.
To the pot, add all the spices and potatoes. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring often to avoid burning/coat each potato with flavor. Optional, you can add the cumin seeds first and bloom them for 3 minutes before adding the spices and potatoes.
Once the potatoes are completed coated, increase the heat to high, add the stock or water/paste and bring to a boil. Reduce heat once boiling and cook for 20-25 minutes.
Before serving, add a can of coconut milk to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes.
Serve with fresh cilantro.
