Zubereitung von Bhutanese Cheese Curry Ema Daji

Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the chopped jalapeños (or chilies of your choice), and sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour in 2 cups of water and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
Add the canned diced tomatoes (undrained) and minced garlic. Bring to a boil again, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, or until the tomatoes have softened and the sauce has slightly thickened.
Gently stir in the crumbled feta cheese and simmer for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and incorporated into the sauce.
Remove from heat, cover, and let the curry rest for 10 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld.
Stir in the chopped coriander leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve warm (not hot) with Bhutanese red rice or plain rice, and a side of stir-fried green vegetables.
