"You can peel the potatoes or leave the skins on in this recipe. I think the skins add something to the flavour and texture of this dish."

This is a wonderful side dish. I make potatoes almost similar to this recipe but without beans, I love the addition of the beans. Very easy to make and great flavours! Thank you, WizzyTheStick, for sharing this wonderful recipe, definitely will be making it again!

Made this yesterday evening for my friends today~ I used red potatoes, vegetable broth, mixture of butter/ and oil, and added additional garlic. We had fresh beans from the garden, so this turned out perfectly. Make sure you add the garlic, tastes great!EDA~ de Roche' we just ate some leftovers, and cannot get over how wonderfully comforting, and satisfying this tastes. I love the curry taste, the onion, the garlic all of it. Thanks again!

Nice way to serve potatoes. Good flavor combination. I used fingerling yellow and purple potatoes cut into pieces. Looking forward to making this again this summer when the really good green beans are in the local farmer's market! I may put more beans and less potato next time.

I'll admit right up front that I don't like curry. Even so, the method you outlined here sounded like something I needed to try. I used 8 medium-sized new potatoes (skin on), which is about equal to 4 medium sized potatoes, butter and olive oil to brown everything in, and in place of the curry powder I used 1 tsp of rosemary and 1 tbsp of parsley. For the liquid I used some homemade vegetable stock. And I also used a larger onion and more garlic than is called for. I had to cook the potatoes and beans much longer than the recipe states to get them to brown. I served this as a side dish to sauted salmon with a creamy onion sauce. The two dishes worked well together. I'm sorry I couldn't make your recipe as written, but curry is not my friend. It sure was tasty the way I made it, though, and I'm so glad you posted the recipe! One last thing... As written, this recipe will feed a small army, so use a large pot.
