Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1 red onion
- 2 eggs
- 20g mango chutney
- 1 tbsp curry powder
- 1 avocado
- 3.8g black mustard seeds
- 1/2 tsbp dried chilli flakes
- 1 lime
- 250g cherry tomatoes
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 5g coriander
- 3 white potatoes
- 185g canned butter beans (can substitute with chickpeas)
- 2 mini garlic and coriander naans
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C / 160°C (fan) / gas 4 and boil half a kettle.
- Peel and finely slice the red onion.
- Heat a large, wide-based pan (with a lid) with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt over a medium heat.
- Once hot, add half the sliced onion (save the rest for later!) and cook for 4-5 min or until softened.
- Whilst the onion is cooking, chop the potatoes (skins on) into small bite-sized pieces.
- Chop the cherry tomatoes in half.
- Once the onion has softened, add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook for a further a 1-2 min or until the tomatoes have started to break down.
- Meanwhile, drain and rinse the butter beans.
- Add the chopped potatoes, butter beans, turmeric, curry powder, half the chilli flakes and half the mustard seeds (you'll use the rest later) to the pan and cook for 2 min until fragrant.
- Once fragrant, add 300ml of boiled water to the potatoes with a very generous pinch of salt and pepper and cook, covered, for 18-20 min or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Whilst the potatoes are cooking, roll the lime with your hand on a hard surface (to release more juice) and cut in half.
- Add the remaining red onion to a small bowl and squeeze the lime juice over, season with a pinch of salt and place the squeezed limes on top for added picking - these are your lime-pickled onions.
- Chop the coriander roughly and cut the avocado in half lengthways, around the stone. Remove the stone. Scoop the avocado out of the skin using a spoon and slice it finely, lengthways.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, stir through the mango chutney and chopped coriander (reserve a little for garnish) and cook for a further 3-4 min -m these are your Bombay potatoes.
- Add the garlic and coriander naans to a baking tray and put the tray in the oven for 3 min or until the bread is hot, then cut into fingers.
- Heat a medium, wide-based pan with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-low heat. Once hot, add the remaining black mustard seeds and crack the eggs into the pan. Cover with a lid and cook for 2-3 min or until done to your liking - these are your mustard seed eggs.
- Serve the Bombay potatoes, with the naan fingers, mustard seed eggs, lime-pickled onions and avocado to the side. Sprinkle the remaining dried chilli flakes over the avocado. Garnish the Bombay potatoes with the remaining chopped coriander.
