Vegetable curry, Bombay style
When you feel like curry, but don't have much time, try this.
Take vegetables, whatever you have on hand. Good combinations are any kind of potato, with carrots, onions, sweet potatoes, or yams.Then add cauliflower or eggplant. You can also use peas or beans, just add them in later.
Cut your vegetables into fairly large pieces - three inches for the carrots, quarter the potatoes unless they are very small, or very large, then cut in eighths.
Put a tbsp or so of olive oil in a heavy bottom pan, and heat gently with a tbsp of Bombay Beat. Add sliced onions, minced garlic, and stir. Then add your vegetables, tossing to coat with the spices and olive oil. Cook over low heat for five minutes, watching carefully, to caramelize the vegetables a little.
Then add 1 cup water, cover, and let cook on medium heat till vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. If you are adding peas or beans, put them in after the first ten minutes.
You can also just pop it in the oven, for about 30 minutes.
This is a great side dish, or for a vegetarian main you could add 1 cup of drained, rinsed chickpeas to the vegetables.
