Preparation Method :
1) For the curry paste, toast the cardamom pods and
the seeds in a dry frying pan until fragrant. Transfer to a mortar, add the
cloves and pound. Discard the empty cardamom pods, shaking out the seeds, and
pound to a powder. Add the remaining paste ingredients and pound to a wet
paste. Set aside.
2) Heat the vegetable oil in a large lidded pan and gently cook the onions for 10 minutes, or until very soft and golden at the edges. Add the curry paste and stir for 3 minutes, being careful not to burn the paste. Add 455 ml (16 fl oz) water, the tomatoes, sugar and salt and gently simmer for 10 minutes. Add the potatoes; they need to be just covered with liquid, so top up with a little water if necessary. Cover with the lid slightly ajar and cook for 20 minutes. Remove the lid and simmer for 10 minutes more, or until the potatoes are tender and the sauce thick. Taste for seasoning and add more salt or sugar if needed.
3) Add the spinach to the pan, cover and cook until just wilted. If your pan is not large enough to hold the curry and the spinach together, wilt the spinach separately and then add. Gently stir to combine the vegetables. Serve immediately, sprinkled with coriander. Delicious with vegan naan bread.
