ALOO GOBI
Traditional Indian dish made of spiced cauliflower and potatoes. This dish is steamed and then fried in oil making it intentionally dry and somewhat crispy. WARNING: This dish is extremely spicy, which is the way I like it. However, if you don't like your food that spicy, feel free to cut down on the serrano pepper and/or cayenne pepper. Also, I would recommend serving this with a side of raita or plain yogurt to cool the mouth down after eating.

ALOO GOBI MATTAR - CAULIFLOWER, PEA AND POTATO CURRY
Why choose between aloo gobi and aloo mattar when you can have both? This is a really tasty dish adapted from the Aloo Gobi recipe at Route79.com - It's a great alternative if you're interested in sneaking some more green vegetables (in this case, peas) into your curry! Traditionally this kind of dish is made in a karahi, but a wok or large nonstick pan with cover works. I highly recommend using ghee for the best flavor. Gluten-free, soy-free and dairy-free. Serve basmati rice and chapati or naan.

WEEKNIGHT ALOO GOBI SAAG
Whenever I am craving Indian food, a golden saag always appears in my mind's eye. Popping mustard and cumin seeds sizzling alongside soft sweet potatoes or cauliflower, adorned with wilted collard greens. Saag dishes are most commonly eaten in the Indian subcontinent in Nepal, Odisha, and West Bengal. It's traditionally served with a maize flour roti, fluffy naan, or chapati in the Punjab region, where it's most commonly eaten.

ALICIA'S ALOO GOBI
This is hands down the easiest and most delicious curry I have ever made. It's my own personal twist on Aloo Gobi, a traditionally dry Indian dish consisting of potatoes and cauliflower. The coconut milk adds the extra sauciness; my favorite part of curry. Serve with basmati rice or, better, with breads such as roti, naan, or pita.

- For best results, use firm potatoes that are not too starchy. Avoid using russet potatoes, as they tend to become too soft when cooked.
- Cut the potatoes and cauliflower into uniform-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the potatoes and cauliflower. Cook them in batches if necessary.
- Be careful not to burn the spices when roasting them. Keep a close eye on them and remove them from the pan as soon as they are fragrant.
- Add the roasted spices to the potatoes and cauliflower while they are still hot. This will help the spices to infuse the vegetables with flavor.
- Serve aloo gobi with rice, roti, or naan bread.
