I was just gonna bump this myself.
Aloo Mutter (potato & pea curry):
INGREDIENTS:
* Oil
* 1 tsp cumin seeds
* 1 tsp mustard seeds
* 1 large onion, sliced into half rings
* 2 small potatoes, peeled and cubed
* 4 tomatoes, chopped finely
* 227ml/8fl oz water
* 1 green chilli, deseeded and chopped
* 3 garlic cloves, crushed
* 1 in piece ginger, peeled and grated (or substitute with powdered ginger instead)
* ½ tsp cayenne pepper
* ½ tsp garam masala
* A liberal amount of frozen peas (a handful should be enough)
* salt and pepper
* chopped fresh coriander, to garnish (optional)
1) Put a little oil in a large saucepan and heat until hot. Add the cumin and mustard seeds. Place a lid (or a plate) on the saucepan and heat gently for about 2-3 mins, until seeds begin to jump and pop.
2) Add the remaining ingredients (apart from the peas, salt & pepper and coriander), bring to the boil and simmer for 10-15 mins until the potato starts to soften.
3) Stir in the peas, season to taste, and cook for a further 5-10 mins until the vegetables are tender, adding more water if necessary. Garnish with the coriander and serve immediately with rice, couscous, or whatever the fuck you like.

NOTE: it doesn't look particularly exciting, but it's fookin' hot. Best to have some milk, or a sweet drink to accompany it.
