Potato and Broccoli Curry Recipe (Vegan)

Ingredients


3 large (1 1/4 pounds, 670g) Yukon Gold or other golden potatoes

3 big stalks broccoli with fist-sized crowns, or 1 larger melon-sized crown

1 (2-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and coarsely chopped

1 clove garlic, chopped

1 (14- to 16-ounce) can diced tomatoes

3/4 cup roasted unsalted whole almonds

1/2 teaspoon salt, or more to taste

2 tablespoons canola oil

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon red chili powder

1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

3 cups vegetable stock

1 stick cinnamon

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

2 to 3 cups cooked rice to serve


Method

1.Prepare the potatoes:

Without peeling, cut the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. Steam the potatoes over boiling water in a vegetable steamer, tightly covered, for 10 minutes. Drain.


2.Prepare the broccoli:

Cut the stems from the crown. Use a paring knife to peel the tough outer skin from the broccoli stems. Slice the stems into 1/4-inch pieces. Cut the crown into florets about 3 inches long.

3.Make the sauce:

In a food processor or blender, combine the ginger, garlic, tomatoes, 1/2 cup of the almonds (set aside the remaining 1/4 cup for garnish), and salt. Pulse the mixture until smooth.


4.Cook the spices:

In a Dutch oven or other large, heavy pot with a lid, heat the canola oil over medium heat. Add the chile powder, coriander, cumin, and turmeric. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute until the spices are fragrant.


5.Simmer the sauce:

Add the puréed tomato mixture to the pot with the spices – stand back as it may splutter as you add it to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.

Add the stock and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil. Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.


6.Cook the vegetables:

Add the potatoes and broccoli to the sauce and bring to a boil. Cover the pot and simmer for 8 minutes, or until all the vegetables are tender when pierced with a skewer.


7.Serve the curry:

Remove the cinnamon stick. Coarsely chop the remaining 1/4 cup almonds.

Ladle the curry into bowls with rice and garnish with almonds and cilantro before serving.
