Kerala Style Potato Stew for breakfast that is Vegan and Gluten Free

Kerala Style Potato Stew - #foodiemamas - Cooking Curries

This is my first time being a part of #FoodieMamas and I am so excited to partner with some amazing mamas to bring you all themed recipes every month. This months theme is potatoes that can be served for breakfast or brunch. I am here in India for the last few weeks and have been shuttling around for weddings and other family stuff.

I planned for this and had a potato post ready but totally missed the breakfast past. So, I had to do some last minute shoot of a breakfast that was made one of these days.

The moment I got to know that it was potato stew for breakfast on one of these days, I was so relieved as I did not have to ask someone to make something with potato for me or get in to the kitchen myself and cook something. As soon as breakfast was ready, I quickly finished my shoot before keeping everyone waiting for their hot breakfast.

Hopefully next month I can come up with something more original and a little bit more creative. Till then here is the very common potato stew with coconut milk, that is served for breakfast with appam (leavened lacey bread) or idiyappam (steamed rice noodles) or bread and with chapatis for dinner.

For our breakfast, it was accompanied with some steamed plantains as well, which made it for a delicious filling breakfast.

I apologize for the pictures, as I did not have enough time and equipment to manipulate the lighting. I can hopefully reshoot when I get back home to Seattle.
