Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup sunflower oil
  • 2 tsp. turmeric
  • 1 tsp. cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. allspice
  • 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
  • Note: Instead of the above spices, you can use the following:
  • 4 tsp curry powder
  • 1 small onion, cut into small pieces
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced or crushed
  • 2 medium sized potatoes, washed, peeled, and chopped into 1/4" cubes
  • salt to taste
  • Additional ingredients
  • (optional-depending on personal taste and what is available in the
  • kitchen): I like to add some or most of the following ingredients (if
  • I have them)
  • up to 1 cup chick peas
  • up to 1 cup sweet potato, yam, or plantain (if adding these,
  • then use less potatoes from above)
  • up to 1 cup of red, yellow, or green pepper (cut into small pieces)
  • up to 1/2 cup broccoli or cauliflower (chopped small
  • up to 1/2 cup sliced bok choy or cabbage
  • 1/2 cup to 1 cup of water

Directions
  1. Heat the spices in the oil on medium heat, in either a sturdy, deep
  2. frying pan, or a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Cook stirring for 5
  3. minutes, careful not to burn spices. Then add onion and garlic and
  4. cook for 1-2 minutes stirring. You may have to turn down the heat a
  5. little bit so that the garlic doesn't burn. Then add the potatoes and
  6. fry them up for 1-2 minutes, stirring. This is also the time to add
  7. any of the following items: chick peas, sweet potato, nigerian yam,
  8. plantain, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, bok choy, or cabbage. Add
  9. the water so that it covers the bottom to at least 1/4" of liquid,
  10. (but not more than 1/2") Cover the pan and simmer for 15 minutes on
  11. medium low heat (the mixture should gently bubble). Taste for salt
  12. and be sure that potatoes are soft. Add a little more water if
  13. necessary.
  14. Serve on rice or scooped onto "roti" which is like a flat crepe or "pita bread" which is thicker.
