Servings: 4-5
Preparation time: 10 minutes

4 tablespoons coconut oil
2 teaspoons palm shortening
4 large potatoes, in quarters or eighths
1 small onion, sliced
salt & pepper to taste
1 tablespoon curry powder
dash red pepper flakes or 1/4 diced habanero chili pepper
1/2 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 1/4 cups coconut milk*

Heat oils in a large skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes and cook until slightly browned. Add sliced onions and cook for about 3 minutes, turning constantly.

Whisk the seasoning and coconut milk together. Pour over potatoes and bring to a simmer.

Lower heat to medium-low or low and let simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15-25 minutes. Stir occasionally as needed.

Serve as a side dish for meat or fish dishes and garnish with parsley if desired.

*Use 1 teaspoon of coconut cream concentrate for every 6-8 oz of water for coconut cream milk. Mix together and use as directed or make homemade coconut milk.

This is an awesome recipe! I made my own coconut milk and the potatoes were so tender and creamy. The curry flavor and garlic was perfect. For a spicier flavor I may add more pepper flakes or even cayenne but it was great just as is. 5 stars!
