Ingredients:

Serving

500 g spinach, rinsed and chopped
200 g potatoes, peeled and chopped into bite size pieces
2 onions , sliced on the half moon
2 chopped green chilies
60 g butter
4 garlic cloves, chopped (i used lazy garlic, chopped not pureed)
4 inches stick ginger, grated (i used cheats ginger, chopped not pureed)
1 tbsp olive oil (to stop butter burning)
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp salt
splash water

Directions:

Heat butter and oil in pan and add onions, garlic, ginger and chillis, stir fry on medium heat for two mins, stirring frequently. Add potatoes and stir fry for 5 mins, then add tumeric, salt , coriander, cumin. Cook for 15 mins or until potatoes are tender, I put the lid on at this stage and checked it every 5 mins or so and stirred. Sometime during this process I added a little water to stop sticking. When potatoes were cooked I added 2 bags of spinach which I had chopped and replaced lid to allow spinach to wilt slightly and then mixed in with potatoes and spices.
