Sensually Spiced Indian Ménage à Trois

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, like the beginning of a slow burn. Add the onion, and season with cumin, turmeric, coriander, chili powder, and salt, stirring until the onion is browned and sultry.
Reduce the heat to medium, like lowering the lights to set the mood. Stir in the potatoes, carrots, and peas, coating them in the spice of life. Cover and simmer until the potatoes are tender to the touch, about 20 minutes. Tease them occasionally with a stir, adding water if necessary to keep the affair from sticking. Surrender to the allure of this exotic side dish as it completes its transformation on your stove.
