Curry!!!

When I feel little motivation to cook, nothing really sounds 'good', or we are, it seems, out of food curry saves my day! I am still experimenting but last night's was the best thus far! It was a milder, non-spicy mix of spices. I only have guesses as to the amounts of spices I used as I ended up adding more at the end (start out with less then add to taste in end). Give it a try, the great thing is you can't really go wrong with it! The parenthesized measurements are, roughly the amounts I used for about 4-6 generous servings over rice.

Spices...
*Cardimum (~1 tsp)
*Cumin (~1 tsp)
*Salt (~1/2 tsp or to taste)
*Paprika (~2-3 dashes, not much)
*Tumeric (~1/2 tsp)
*Ceyanne (opt. to taste, adds heat)
*Fennelgreek (~3/4 tsp)

*Amounts vary according to your tastes. The spices make the meal! We make it stronger when served over brown rice as the rice mellows out the flavor.

Veggies...
Onion (fresh, 1 small, roughly chopped)
Ginger (fresh, minced about 1 inch)
Garlic (fresh, minced ~2 tsp)
Diced tomatoes (canned, loosely drained 14 oz)
Sweet bell pepper (we used 1 large orange chopped into chunks..it was delicious!)
Red potatoes (4 small, chopped into chunks)
Carrots (2, sliced into circles)

These are the veggies I used because it was everything we had left in the fridge. Feel free to use whatever! But I must say that this combination was really great! Cut the veggies coarsely (fairly largely), they will hold and add their unique flavors to the dish this way.

Broth/liquid
Coconut oil (for sauteing...it is delicious! We use unrefined)
Chicken or veggie broth or water (about 1/2-1 cup)
Coconut milk (1/2 can)

Rough instructions...
Saute onions and ginger in coconut oil 2-4 min. Add garlic. Add all veggies. Mix spices together and add to veggie mixture. Stir often (add more oil if needed) potatoes tend to stick but just keep stirring 2-4 min. Add broth or water and tomatoes. Simmer until the veggies are tender. Add coconut milk and more spices to taste. Simmer on low heat til the spices blend together. Serve over rice.

Enjoy! Let me know how yours turns out!
