  • ½ tsp turmeric
  • 900g frozen spinach, thawed

Method

Step 1

Heat a large saute pan over a medium heat. Add a good glug of oil, then add the cumin seeds. Cook for 2 mins until fragrant.

Step 2

Tip in the onions and cook for 15 min over a medium heat until soft and caramelised.

Step 3

Pop the potatoes in a pan of cold salted water and bring them to a boil. Cook for 15 mins until just tender.

Add the tomato purée, garlic, ginger and chopped chillies to the onions. Cook for 3 mins until the colour has darkened. Tip in the turmeric and cook for 2 mins more.

Step 5

Add the thawed spinach to the pan along with 100ml of water and cook for 5 mins.

Step 6

Add half of the spinach and onion mixture to a blender and blitz until smooth. Tip this back into the spinach pan and season to taste.

Step 8

Garnish the mixture with the sliced red chillies, then serve.
