Potato Masala

IMG_7335"Daddy, show me how to eat just like you." I love seeing our little guys take interest in their culture. Liam sees his daddy and I eat Indian food with our hands. Usually he just uses his fork or will use his hands. A few days ago during dinner, he noticed that daddy was using his hands in a very specific way. Then he repeatedly asked Joel to show him how to do it. IMG_7337He's definitely learning! There are certain things within Indian culture we push hard with the boys. One of which is what they call people. Like I have mentioned before, there are certain names for uncles, aunts, grandparents, elders, etc. However there are also things we want the boys to pick up on their own. I love when it happens naturally! Of course one of the other things you're all interested in... What were we eating for dinner?? Keema curry and potato masala. Ingredients:1 tbs butter1/2 chopped onion1/2 tbs ground coriander1/2 tsp turmeric1 chopped tomato1/2 cup water2 cups of potatoes (You can add any other vegetable you'd like too!)1/2 tbs garam masala1 tsp salt1 tbs lemon juice1 jalapeño1 tbs ginger garlicDirections:Heat butter and oil over medium heat.
