Ingredient Notes & Substitutions
- Yellow Onion: you can also use a white or red onion if you want
- Garlic
- Ginger: fresh ginger is ideal for that bite of ginger flavor. But if you don't have fresh, a bit of dried ginger will work just fine
- Turmeric, Cumin, Coriander: curry spices
- Salt & Pepper
- Yellow Potatoes: I recommend baby yellow potatoes or yukon gold potatoes, they are soft and tender - perfect for curry
- Vegetable Broth: I like to use stock instead of water to create a more flavorful curry. If you don't have vegetable broth or stock, you can use water.
- Coconut Milk: This is the canned coconut milk, not the stuff you buy from a carton. The canned milk is much thicker and creamier. This is the key ingredient for the deliciously rich flavor of this curry.
- Green Beans: fresh or frozen both work!
- To Serve: pita, lime wedges, cilantro

Step-By-Step-Instructions
Step 1. Sauté the onion in a large saucepan over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, until the onion starts to turn translucent.

Step 2. Add the garlic, ginger, turmeric, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute.

Step 3. Add the potatoes, vegetable broth, and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes, until the potatoes are starting to become tender.

Step 4. Add the green beans and cook another 5 minutes, until tender.

Step 5. Remove the curry from the heat and serve. Garnish with cilantro and serve with pita bread and a lime wedge.
