Best Recipe for Scalloped Potatoes With Coconut Milk and Chilies
Ingredients
- 1 can (13.5 ounces) unsweetened coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Balchao Masala
- 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher or sea salt
- Vegetable cooking spray
- 1 pound russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, cut crosswise or lengthwise (depending on their size) into 1/4-inch-thick slices, and submerged in a bowl of cold water to prevent browning
- 4 scallions (green tops and white bulbs), thinly sliced crosswise
- 8 to 10 medium-size to large fresh curry leaves
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Whisk the coconut milk, masala, and salt together in a small bowl.
- Lightly spray a casserole dish with cooking spray. Drain the potatoes. Cover the bottom of the casserole with a layer of potatoes, and sprinkle a third of the scallions over them. Stir the sauce (the masala tends to sink to the bottom, so a good stir helps to mix everything evenly) and drizzle a third of it over the layer. Repeat the layers of potatoes, scallions, and masala two more times, using up all the ingredients
- Spread the curry leaves over the top layer. Cover the dish and bake until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 45 minutes.
- Remove the cover and continue to bake until the potatoes are browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Then serve.
