1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 4 minutes, stirring, until softened.

2. Add the garlic and grated ginger and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the cumin, turmeric, curry powder and allspice and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

3. Add the potato cubes and plantain chunks and stir to coat in the spices. Add a splash of water, cover, and simmer over medium-low heat for 10 minutes.
