Ingredients

(Serving of 4) 

Produce

• 2 cloves Garlic minced
• 1/2 Onion, large chopped
• 4 small chopped Potatoes
• 1 cup Spinach
• 5 oz Tomatoes, fresh

Canned Goods

• 1 can Coconut milk
• 1 tbsp Tomato paste
• 1 cup of green peas  

Pasta & Grains

• 1 cup Rice or Quinoa

Spices

• 1 tbsp Curry powder
• 1 tsp Garam masala
• 1 Salt and pepper
• 1 tsp Turmeric

Instructions: 

1. Add the garlic and onion to a non-stick saucepan and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant. Add a splash of water if it starts to stick, to keep this recipe oil-free. Then, add the tomato paste and sauté for 1 minute more to coat. 
2. Add the fresh tomatoes and press them down gently. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes, until the tomatoes start to release their juices. 
3. Add the potatoes, coconut milk, curry powder, turmeric and garam masala. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook on a low-medium heat, stirring occasionally, for around 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. 
4. At the last minute, stir in the spinach and green peas, cooking until the spinach has wilted. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve over a bed of rice of your choice or quinoa!
