Preparation

Step 1
Place the cubed potatoes into a saucepan and add enough water to cover. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are fork tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain in a colander and return potatoes to the pan to keep warm.

Step 2
While the potatoes cook, prepare the peppers and chickpeas. Heat the oil in a large, covered skillet or Dutch oven, over medium high heat. Add the peppers and saute until they are just softened, about 4 minutes.

Step 3
Reduce the heat to medium and add the chickpeas and the Madras Curry.

Step 4
Add the cooked potatoes, stirring occasionally, letting the curry gently simmer for about about 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.

Step 5
Serve hot with rice or naan bread, and riata on the side.
