Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Main dish Vegetables
Ethnic Vegetarian

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1/2 ts Tumeric
1/2 lb Potatoes — 225 g. chopped in
-small cubes
1 ea Onion — finely chopped
1 ea Bay leaf
1/2 ts Cumin, ground
1/2 ts Ginger, ground
1/4 ts Chili powder
4 ea Tomatoes — chopped
1 c Cabbage — finely sliced
1/2 c Peas
Oil
-Salt

“In Bangladesh, cabbage is usually available in the market during the
winter season, as are tomatoes, peas and carrots. So this dish appears
quite frequently at Bengali dinner tables during the winter. In the markets
where such vegetables are available year round, banda is a popular
standard.” Meghna Guharthakurta, Dhaka, Bangladesh

Start by heating the oil in a heavy pan and put in the tumeric and some
salt. Fry for a few seconds and then add the cubed potatoes, turning
frequently so that they turn yellow from the tumeric. Cook them for 5-10
minutes (they will complete their cooking later) and remove them from the
oil and set aside. Adding more oil if necessary, now saute the onion slices
until they are soft and transparent. Then add the bay leaf, cumin, ginger
and chili powder. Stir well and put in the tomatoes. When they have begun
to break down, add the cabbage bit by bit, stirring it in well so that it
is sauteed in the spices. Cover and cook gently for 3-5 minutes. Finally
put in the peas and semi-fried potatoes and seasoning.Mix well, replace the
cover and continue to cook for 5-10 minutes or until potatoes are ready.

From the August issue of Gourmet magazine.

Once steeped, this vinegar is supposed to “keep for several months.
(Garnishes and other solids left in the jar, however, may discolor or
break down.)”

Chili Vinegar

20 2-inch-long dried chilies
2 cups white-wine vinegar
In a very clean 1-qt glass jar combine the chilies and the
vinegar and let the mixture steep, covered with the lid, in a
cool dark place for at lease 2 days and up to 2 weeks, depending
on the strength desired. Strain the vinegar through a fine sieve
into a glass pitcher, reserving 2 chilies for garnish and
discarding the rest, and pour it into 2 very clean 1/2 pint glass
jars. Ad the reserved chilies and seal the jars with the lids.
