Love the combination - this is a meal in itself, however being a carnivore I served it with skinless, boneless chicken breasts, baby carrots. Loved the flavor. I used 1 tsp mustard powder instead of the seeds and mashed the potatoes before adding the peas and mint. Watch the amount of liquid left ibefore you start to mash them there may just a bit too much liquid (as this recipe did not intend to mash the potatoes) I removed the extra sauce and served it over the potatoes & peas Super recipe Eve*Thanks

This was fantastic. We didn't have any ghee, so we used butter and it was still delicious. We also decided to modify it by adding cauliflower. We added that the same time as the potatoes and it was perfect. I used 1/2 t of cayenne pepper for the "pepper" and it was a little too spicy for my 6 year old daughter, so I think I'll use 1/4 t of cayenne pepper for this recipe next time. My husband and I loved this, so we'll probably make it a lot!
