Aloo Rusmari (Potatoes and Green Beans With Rosemary)

"This recipe is an adaptation of Chef de Roche's Aloo Talkari (Recipe #219986), which uses curry. The recipe sounded so good, except for the curry which I don't care for, so I modified it. The resulting dish was yummy and full of flavor. With her gracious permission and encouragement, I am posting this adaptation."

directions

  • In a large pot, heat the oil and butter. Add the potatoes and a teaspoon of salt along with a bit of black pepper, and cook until potatoes are brown on all sides.
  • Stir in the green beans and cook until they begin to brown and blister.
  • Add the onions and cook until they begin to soften and turn translucent.
  • Add the garlic and stir well. Cook for about 30 seconds.
  • Add the parsley and rosemary and cook a few minutes until the rosemary begins to release its aromas.
  • Add the stock. Reseason with salt and pepper as necessary.
  • Partly cover the pot and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove the lid and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half.
  • Enjoy!
  • NOTES:

  • Measurements for the herbs are given for dried herbs. If you're using fresh, double or triple the amounts shown.
  • You can use chicken stock or water in place of the vegetable stock. I always use veggie stock since I make my own and have tons on hand. You'll get much better flavor using any kind of stock instead of water.
  • Like Chef de Roche, I prefer to leave the skin on the potatoes for the flavor, texture and vitamins, but the choice is yours.
