Aloo Gobi

I love good indian food - not the korma's of this world but the lovely veggie dishes that I am pretty sure would look as natural in the Punjab as they do in E17.  At my event on Thursday night, I had a couple of drinks, bit of boogying and then fell over. 

Normally can deal with a scrape or a swollen knee but have buggered ankle so not much moving on Friday or Saturday.  So - and honestly this will eventually be relevant - I had to choose a take-away and chose Indian.  Samoosa (little oily be nice), peshwari naan (nice but not great) and Aloo gobi.  Now that was beautiful.

Aloo Gobi is potato (aloo) and cauliflower (gobi) cooked with tumeric, curry leaves, garlic, ginger, onion and Kalonji (Nigella sativa).  Really lovely and savoury!   We don't get much Indian food in South Africa and the veggie dishes are my favorite.

Another thing to add to the bucket list - really do need to learn how to make this.
