Blogging Marathon# 36: Week 3/ Day 3
Theme: Ethiopian Cuisine
Dish: Tikel Gomen (Ethiopian Cabbage, Carrots & Potatoes)
The weather has been crazy this winter. We had temperatures waaay below freezing, thanks to the so-called polar vortex and then there was snow and rain. We had a couple of days respite, but the prediction for next week seems to be below freezing again. I can't wait for this winter to get over.
Coming back to the task in hand, BM# 36, for the last Ethiopian dish of the week, I made a dish with cabbage, carrot & potatoes. This dish is made very similar to an Indian curry and has very similar taste profile as well. I made some Injera to serve along with Mesir wat and this Tikel gomen.
Ingredients:
- Cabbage - ½ head, chopped about 3~4 cups
- Carrots - 2 medium, cubed
- Potatoes - 2 medium, diced
- Onion - 1 medium, chopped
- Green chilies/ Jalapenos - 2, slit
- Garlic - 2cloves
- Ginger - 1" piece
- Ground Cumin - 1tsp
- Red Chili powder - ½tsp (optional)
- Turmeric - ¼tsp
- Salt & Pepper - to taste
Method:
Heat 2~3tbsp oil in a saute pan, add onions, carrots, ginger, garlic and green chilies. Cook until onions start to turn translucent.
Next add potatoes and cabbage along with turmeric. Mix well.
Cover and cook until potatoes are tender and cabbage is cooked.
Add cumin, red chili powder, salt and pepper.
Mix well and cook for 3~4 minutes.
Serve with rice or injera.
