Coconut Creamed Spinach Recipe Recipes Recipe For Potato

CREAMED COCONUT SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat scant 1 tablespoon ghee in a large Dutch oven over medium. Add spinach and cook, stirring, until just wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain spinach in a sieve, pressing to remove excess liquid. Let cool slightly, then roughly chop.
• Return pan to medium heat and melt remaining 2 tablespoons ghee. Add shallots, ginger, and jalapeno and cook until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in flour, cumin, and sugar and cook for 1 minute, then slowly whisk in coconut milk. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir chopped spinach into coconut mixture and season with salt and pepper.

CURRY-CREAMED SPINACH AND TOFU (OR PORK) WITH POTATO CRUST

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425. Bring a large pot of water to boil, and salt it. When the water is boiling, add the spinach, and cook for about a minute. Plunge the spinach into a large bowl of ice water, squeeze the moisture from the leaves and roughly chop them.
• Put the butter and garam masala (or curry powder) and nutmeg in a large saucepan over medium heat. When the spices are fragrant, add the coconut milk, yogurt, spinach, tofu (or pork) and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the spinach has absorbed much of the liquid; taste, and adjust the seasoning, and transfer to an ovenproof dish.
• Toss the potato slices with the oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lay them over the top of the spinach and tofu (or pork) without overlapping too much. Bake until the potatoes are golden and crisp, 25 to 35 minutes. Scoop into bowls, and serve.

COCONUT POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes in the hot oil until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove from skillet and reserve.
• Reduce the heat to medium, and cook the onions in the skillet until translucent, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir the garlic, ginger, turmeric, cumin seeds, and salt and pepper into the onions. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Return the potatoes to the skillet and cook until almost done, about 15 minutes.
• Pour the coconut milk over the potatoes; stir in the tomato puree and chopped parsley. Cook until potatoes are cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 5 additional minutes.
