I can't wait to try this :)


This is really good and hearty. I didnt have any cumin so i substituted with curry. Next time i try it i want to thicken it with sour cream instead of flour. Also, add salt towards the end of cooking, potatoes like to suck all the salt out of their environment that their being cooked in.


The sour cream works really well too. I omitted the flour but did everything else the same. then when it was served, i added a big dallop of sour cream to each bowl and stirred it in. It was really good!
