Ingredients

  • 4 large russet potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 12 cup peas (I used frozen plain green peas)
  • 13 cup cauliflower floret, finely chopped
  • 14 cup channa dal (split teeny chickpeas, can use whole garbanzos if you don't have an Indian grocer nearby)
  • 14 cup red lentil
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 12 teaspoon coriander
  • 12 teaspoon garam masala

Method

  • Wash and chop the potatoes.
  • Boil, covered, under tender, about 20-25 minutes.
  • While the potatoes are boiling, cook the channa dal and red lentils at the
  • same time-- in plenty of boiling water, covered, about 25 minutes.
  • When the lentils and potatoes are done cooking, drain them and put into a
  • large saucepan.
  • Steam the peas and cauliflower and put them in the saucepan too.
  • Put the butter on top of the veggie mix with the spices, turn the heat on low, and try to stir.
  • Simmer, covered, on low heat for a few minutes until the veggies absorb the butter and spice mix.
  • Serve immediately.
  • This serves 1-2 and was a simple dinner for me, use the ingredient multiplier if you are cooking for more people.
