1. Heat the oil in a large frypan or pot, add the mustard seeds, cumin, coriander, curry poder and chili powder and heat gently till the bubble. Add the onions, garlic and ginger root.
2. Cook gently till the onion is transluscent, but not browned and then add the kumera. Add the coconut cream and rinse the can out with water and add that as well - around a cup of water. Turn the kumera to coat it with the spicy liquid, then cover and cook for approximately 30 minutes till kumera is tender. Turn the kumera a couple of times during the cooking.
