Aarti's Recipe. Step 5. Rosie Assembles Everything.

Here's Rosie's rendition of Artie's meal:
Align Center
A little toasted pita bread at top left, skewered lamb kabob in a pool of pomegranate molasses, cucumber raita to the left of the skewer, non-Bengali spiced potatoes at bottom left, and Rosie's tabbouleh at bottom right. I love lamb. I love mint with lamb. I love the pomegranate reduction. I love the lamb with the pomegranate. I'd never had anything like these potatoes before. I must say, I'm liking the warmth of the spices and enjoying the cool, refreshing raita - a welcome complement. It was ... different. And I like different. I'd do it again. And I've always said, "Indian food looks like crap, but tastes great!" Is there anything Indian about this? My apologies to whomever I have offended.

An Indian friend of mine made me some potatoes that looked a lot like yours. I think she added peas to hers, too. They were so good, though.

Hi Ken,
Peas would've been really good in this. The greenness and sweetness and peaness would have added a lot.
