    Heat the oil in a large saucepan, add the onion and potato.Cover, then cook over a low heat for 5 mins until the potato starts to soften.Add the aubergine garlic chili and mushrooms, then cook for a few more minutes.

    Stir in the curry powder & keep stiring it all for a minute, pour over the stock and coconut milk.Bring to the boil, then simmer for 20 minutes or until the potato is tender & sauce has thickened.

      a bit 'off topic' but relates to a really good mushroom recipe and a really good potato recipe

      mushrooms ...

      cut some large capped brown mushrooms in slices
      fry in butter and olive oil (50/50 mix)
      when soft and nearly ready, add salt and fresh ground black pepper
      add 2 heaped tablespoons of cake flour or self raisng flour
      continue cooking whilst continuosly stirring
      add a good dollop of modena vinegar and cook for an extra minute or two whilst stirring ... serve hot

      this is the recipe that my mom used when she cooked wild mushrooms in South Africa, but works fine with the normal brown mushrooms aswell

      ------------------

      Greek potato salad:

      peel the potatoes ... cut into chunks (the same way as if you were making normal potato salad)

      lay in a bowl of cold water for 20 minutes to extract the starch

      rinse, and boil in water with some salt until soft (but not mushy)

      drain, and add to a bowl

      add 1/2 cup of diced fresh parsley to the potatoes and stir

      add 1 diced white onion and stir

      1/2 a cup of extra virgin olive oil mixed with the juice of 2-3 fresh lemons ... some extra salt and fresh ground pepper ... 3 heaped tablespoons of dried oregano crushed in the palm of your hand ... mix all these together, and slowly pour over the hot potatoes and mix

      can be eaten hot, or place in the fridge and cool ... goes well with BBQ, fish or any meal, and be be kept in the fridge for several days
