Madras Vegetable Curry (Vegetarian) image

Altho I did not choose this vegetarian dish from the cruise menu, I found it in the *Carnival Creations* cookbook by Cyrus Marfatia (Exec Chef of Carnival Cruise Lines) & see it as a fine example of the great care taken to provide tempting vegetarian choices across all courses for the vegetarians on-board the ship. The recipe intro description stated that "An assortment of distinctive spices makes this Indian vegetable dish dance with tremendous flavor" & it was later suggested that it be served w/cinnamon-flavored cooked rice which I see as an esp appealing option. (Times were not given, so I estimated 20 min for ingredient prep + 20 min cook time). *Enjoy* !

  • In a lrg frying pan, heat oil till hot over med-high heat. Stir in onion, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom + bay leaves & cook till onion begins to brown (See NOTE below).
  • Stir in garlic, gingerroot + curry powder & cook till flavors are released (I assume aroma is the test of this point).
  • Add tomatoes & cook for 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low, stir in potatoes & cont cooking till potatoes are partially cooked.

  • Remove whole spices & bay leaves. Stir in peas, season to taste w/salt, stir in the cilantro & serve immediately as suggested.
