YOU NEED
Potato Bread
Approx. 4 large russet potatoes Approx. 4 cups All Purpose Flour
Handful of dill stems 2 bay leaf Salt to taste
Tikka Powder
1 cup vadouvan powder, sift to remove big pieces 1⁄2 cup curry powder
1 cup apple cider vinegar powder (available online) 1⁄4 cup salt
Curry Leaf Yogurt
4 cup soaked cashews 2 cups water
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar 1⁄4 cup agave
1⁄4 cup curry leaf oil 2 teaspoon sea salt
METHOD Potato Bread
• Peel potatoes and place in cold, salted water with dill stems and bay leaf Turn on heat and bring to a boil.
• When potatoes are fully cooked transfer to a ricer and process while still hot. Try to keep the potato warm(covered) while you work.
• With a cup measure, determine the yield on the potato and measure an equal amount of flour. Season the flour with salt to taste and begin to knead together with potato until a ball is formed. Dough should be slightly tacky but not too wet.
• Portion the dough into balls, then using a rolling pin, roll out into long oval shapes, flouring your work surface as needed. Try not to let the dough overlap as the flatbreads may stick together.
• Heat up a griddle on high heat and place flatbread on the hot surface. As the dough cooks it may begin to puff a little. Flip flatbread over and cook on each side. The cooking process takes about one minute. • Clean the griddle of any excess flour in between breads.
Tikka Powder
• Peel potatoes and place in cold, salted water with dill.
• Whisk together all ingredients until completely incorporated. Transfer into a shaker.
Curry Leaf Yogurt
• Blend 4 cups soaked almonds with remaining ingredients in blender on high speed until very smooth and yogurt consistency. Should take at least a minute to blend completely. • With blender off of the motor scrape down the sides of the blender beaker at least once during the process for best results.
