My review
Aloo Matar
Vaijayanti Tamhankar
"Here is a delightful dish - potatoes and peas in a tomato puree sauce. It's pretty easy to rustle up, and adds zing to any meal. The best thing is that all of the ingredients are readily available. Serve hot with naan, puris, rotis, or plain rice."

Very good, however, there was a little too much paprika for my taste. After cutting down on that, this is a very good way to make to Aloo Matar.

This was so good! I really loved it, and it's really cheap and easy to boot. I also used a large pot rather than a wok and used 12 tablespoon each of grated ginger and crushed garlic rather th...
