Potato Vindaloo

Happy Monday everyone! Today I’m bringing you another recipe from my new cookbook! Lots of good spices in this one! I picked this recipe because I was gifted some potatoes and onions by my friend Jen. So, I searched for a recipe using those specifically. Thanks, Jen! For this recipe, we will need potatoes (obviously), garlic, diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro, cloves, mustard seeds, bay leaves, cumin, paprika, corriander, and red wine vinegar. You’ll notice in the background of the picture a rooster mug with flowers in it. My dad makes these. We have a few spread about the house. This one is in the kitchen because we have a chicken theme going in there!

Taters and other goodies

Start by cutting up the potatoes and put them in the steamer until they are soft. Dice up the onions (which Mr. FBBQ was kind enough to do for me) and cook them (which Mr. FBBQ was also kind enough to do for me)!

In a pot, add the diced tomatoes and red wine vinegar. You’ll also add all the spices and mix it together, heating it over low heat. Once the onions are cooked, you can add them to this mixture as well.

Tomatoes and all the spices

Chop up the garlic and cook that. Mr. FBBQ put it in the cast iron pan on the smoker for me. It turned out delicious!

The garlic

Cook your choice of rice. I opted for jasmati rice cooked in vegetable broth.
