2 t cumin seeds
1-2 green chilis, seeded and chopped
2 cloves garlic, mashed and chopped

METHOD

Toast the coriander in a skillet over med-high heat until fragrant and browned. Cool and grind into powder.

Heat oil in a pan. When hot, add mustard and cumin seeds. When mustard seeds begin to pop, add chilis, cilantro, garlic, and ground coriander. Cook a couple minutes, until garlic is soft.

This recipe is great. Although mine turned out more like Indian Spiced Mashed Potatoes (probably cause i boiled the potatoes to long or mixed the ingredients too much). I've been looking at vegan recipes for awhile and this one is unmatched. I couldn't even tell it was vegan. I'm gonna make this for all the family functions and for myself.
