1. Begin heating the cardamom and coriander in a small frying pan set to medium low. Stir and cook 3 – 4 minutes or until they start to become fragrant. Remove them from the heat and either grind them up or crush them in a mortar and pestle.

 

1. In a large frying pan, begin melting the 4 tbsp. of butter on just below medium heat. Once melted, add the onions and a generous pinch of sea salt. Stir and cook 6 – 8 minutes. Make space in the center of the pan and gently stir the garlic in. Let it cook 1 minute before stirring everything together with the pepper flakes. Continue cooking 2 minutes.

 

1. Stir in the tomato paste and let it cook for a minute before stirring in the cardamom, coriander, cumin, ginger, cinnamon, white pepper, nutmeg, cloves, and chili powder. Stir and cook another minute as spices start to become fragrant.

 

1. Add the crushed tomatoes and simmer 10 minutes. Add the whipping cream and continue to simmer for another 10 minutes as the sauce thickens and bubbles away.

 

1. Add the halved potatoes, chickpeas, and the ¾ tsp. sea salt. Stir, cover, and continue to simmer 6 – 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings if desired.

 

1. For service, enjoy served over a grain of your choice and garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime. ENJOY!
