I had peeled potatoes... I had cleaned mushrooms.
India was calling.
So I looked online just to see if what I had in mind was something that had occurred to anyone else.... Turns out it was! But I wanted to free-style this, so I didn’t look at recipes.
I brown-fried a chopped onion...

...then added about a tablespoon each of minced garlic and ginger and sautéed for about a minute. Next I added my homemade curry powder and some ground cumin, coriander, cardamom, turmeric, a splash of sriracha, and some salt. After another minute, I added some chicken stock. I let this cook on low for a few minutes, and then turned off the heat.
I sautéed some cubed potatoes...

...and at the last moment added some more curry powder. Then I sautéed quartered mushroom caps. I combined all of the vegs with the sauce, tasted for salt, and added black pepper.
I served this over brown rice topped with a bit of sour cream mixed with a chopped avocado, then I topped the whole thing with lime zest.
I can’t tell you which southeast Asian country would claim this... but I’ll claim it! This is great!
