Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a 6.5-quart covered stockpot over medium-high heat.

  • Stir in the seasonings (salt, pepper, cumin, turmeric, ginger) and toast for 60 seconds.

Notes

You can get away with reducing the olive oil to about 2 tablespoons, but it adds flavor as well as moisture to this dish. For best results, use the full amount.
