It is said that eating black-eyed peas on New Years Day brings a person prosperity. Well I love these lovely nutritious legumes and I know my "windfall" will come someday. I curried these peas so they a bursting with flavor. Enjoy them with any style of rice or Indian style flat bread.
Ingredients:
2 cans of black-eyed peas (rinsed well)
4-5 cloves of garlic grated
2 inches grated fresh ginger
2 serrano/jalapeno chilies sliced (seeded if you want to reduce the heat)
2 bay leaves
1 cup of tomatoes diced. (You can used any style fresh tomato or even can tomatoes)
1 tsp cumin seed
1 tsp mustard seed
1 tsp garam masala
1 piece of cinnamon stick
1 tsp of red chili flakes (or to taste)
1/2 tsp of turmeric
10-15 curry leaves
Salt (to taste)
1/2 cup of coconut milk
1/2 cup of water
squirt of lime juice (optional)
Directions:

Then add your onions and green chilies. Fry for another minute.

Add the ½ cup of coconut milk to the pan and stir well. Cook for another minute. Turn off the stove and add a squeeze of lime juice (about 1 tsp) for a little freshness. You can also stir in some fresh cilantro or parsley to give it some more fresh flavor.
Serves 4-6 people. Serve with Rice or Flat bread and enjoy.

We are huge fans of black eyed peas all year long, and this recipe sounds yummy! In fact, I recently bought 6 cans because they were on sale, might try this tonight with some naan bread.... I'll let you know how it goes!
