Indian Aloo gobi recipe
The cold begins! Today has begun to notice, right?
That's why I wanted to share a warm and comforting recipe for these days. It is a curry, but not a curry of which we add "curry" species and that's it, but a real curry.
This summer in India, I was able to try different curries and one of the ones I liked the most was one prepared with potato (Aloo) and cauliflower (Gobi). The combination is delicious and with the sauce (gravy) even more! This sauce can be prepared in different ways, one of them is with cashews that, for me, give it a creamier touch. That is why today I shared it this way.
Did you know that curry means mixture of species? There are many combinations of curry depending on the mixture of species that it carries. When I was in Jodphur, I found a species store where I could discover many different mixtures, for: lentils, chicken, vegetables, fish, potatoes ... and all of them different! It is a pass.
In the recipe that I share today I have used three species that combined en-can-tan !: turmeric, garam masala and cumin.
It is an easy and comforting dish for these colder months that we can serve as an accompaniment to our main dishes: fish, rice, quality meat or even with some eggs.
