  • 1 Tbs. minced fresh ginger
  • 1 jalapeño, chopped (about 1 Tbs.)
  • 1 tsp. curry powder

  • ¾ cup orange juice
  • ¼ cup crunchy peanut butter
  • 1 Tbs. brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. tamarind paste
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  1. Heat skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add potatoes, and sauté 1 minute. Add ginger and jalapeño, and cook 1 minute, or until fragrant. Stir in curry powder, and cook 1 minute more. Add broth, cover, and reduce heat to medium low. Simmer potatoes 10 minutes, or until soft.

I love this simple, delicious dish! A quick an easy winter meal that I usually have everything on hand for. Great over some chewy brown rice. I often add various other veggies I have lying around.
