Ingredients for a large portion of Aloo Matar:

4 medium potatoes
170g frozen, unsalted peas
400 g cherry tomatoes, halved
1 onion, diced
2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
2 Tea spoons Ginger powder or freshly grated
2 Tea spoons raw honey
1 lemon or lime, juiced
1 pinch yellow curry powder
1 pinch Garam masala
1⁄2 tsp sea-salt
1⁄2 cup coriander leaves
1 teaspoon Coconut oil

Preparation of Aloo Matar:

Steam the potatoes in a pot with a steamer until they are soft. Let cool and then dice.

Heat 1 teaspoon of coconut oil in a ceramic pan. Add onion and garlic. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until translucent, adding water as needed to prevent burning. Then add ginger, curry powder and garam masala and mix well. After 1–2 minutes, add the cherry tomatoes and fry with the lid on for about five to 10 minutes, if necessary adding a little more water.

When the tomatoes are soft, add the honey and sea salt. Mix well. Finally, the frozen peas and potatoes are added. Continue frying briefly, then sprinkle with chopped coriander if desired and round off with a little lemon juice. Enjoy immediately.

Bon appetit!
