Hey there!
So, back in the States, it is cold.
In Africa, notsomuch.
Days here range from mid 70’s (F) to mid 80’s (F). And when the sun isn’t beating down, there is refreshing rain to dampen the dust.
But, as Kenya is heavily influenced by Indian culture, it only makes sense that you – in the cold – and I – in the heat – both indulge in a super tasty and pretty healthy potato curry.
What makes this dish so good?
Well, for one, it’s unprocessed, it’s simple to make, and it’s loaded with hearty plant foods, including kale, potatoes, peas, and tomatoes.
Oh, and it features my favorite food ever: coconut.
So, whip this curry up while you attempt to stay warm wherever you are, and I’ll continue to create and share this delectable dish with folks here.
PS – We’re creating SO many recipes at the moment, it’s kind of ridiculous. BUT, it’s because we’re crafting a couple of cookbooks for the #Organics4Orphans non-profit and, as a result, Bloom for Life.
I hope you enjoy this super tasty curry!
