Aladdin Curried Garbanzo Beans And Potatoes

2 Tbs olive oil - (to 3)
1/4 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced white onion
1/4 cup diced carrots
1 Tbs minced garlic
3 bay leaves
4 cups chicken stock - (to 5)
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp chopped fresh oregano
1 tsp Madras curry powder
1 tsp Indian curry powder
1 tsp Thai curry paste
1 lb boiling potatoes, peeled,
  diced
2 cans garbanzo beans - (16 oz ea)
salt and pepper
1/2 cup chopped parsley, divided

Directions
1 Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high
   heat. Add the celery, onion and carrots and cook until the onion is
   translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and bay leaves and
   cook 2 minutes more.
2 Add 2 cups of chicken stock, the cayenne pepper,
   oregano, Madras and Indian curry powders, curry paste, potatoes and
   garbanzo beans. Stir to combine well. At this point, the stock should
   cover 3/4 of the mixture; if necessary, add more stock. Season with

   salt and pepper to taste.
3 Heat the remaining stock in a saucepan over medium-low
   heat.
4 Add 1/4 cup of parsley to the skillet. Bring the stew
   to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the vegetables
   are soft, 45 minutes to 1 hour. As the stock evaporates, add 1/2 cup
   warm stock to the stew at a time, as though making a risotto. The
   stew will thicken as it cooks.
5 Just before serving, stir in the remaining parsley.
   Transfer the stew to a warm tureen or bowl to serve. Serve with
   roasted leg of lamb, tandoori chicken skewers or grilled curry fish
   filets.
