Potatoes-peas stew
Ingredients
- 500 g potatoes
- 400 g peas
- 100 g carrots
- 100 g onion
- 1 red bell pepper
- 200 ml tomato sauce
- 300 ml water
- 2 tbsp ghee
- 2 tsp curry paste
- 1 tsp garam masala
- fresh herbs
- salt (himalaya/ sea salt) and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Peel, wash and cut your vegetables. In a pan, heat the ghee, add the chopped onion, paprika and carrots. When soft, add garam masala and curry paste, let them roast for 30-60 second or until the flavors start to unfold.
- Add water or vegetable stock, potatoes, cover with a lid and let it simmer on medium heat for 15 minutes.
- Add peas(fresh or frozen), tomato sauce and let it simmer again for another 10 minutes. Optional, you can add some cream or coconut milk for a smoother texture and taste.
- Serve it with fresh herbs of your choice. For example, dill is a great companion for peas.
- Dill has the property of increasing Pita and decreasing Vata and Kapha energy. Adapt it to your needs, so you can use a herb not only for flavor, but also like a medicine. This is, of course, the main core of Ayurvedic diet. Use your food to stay healthy and also to rebalance your body in case of disease.
