October is curry month, and on an autumnal friday night there is nothing nicer than a warming curry. Those of you who have been with us on retreat in the last few months may have tasted this new dish – the Saag Aloo Chana Gobi, its quite a mouthful to say and even more of a delicious mouthful to eat too. This roasted cauliflower & potato curry has been a great hit on retreats and now here’s your chance to try it at home!
This Saag Aloo Chana Gobi is full of flavour from the spices, crunch from the roasted potatoes and cauliflower and not too saucy – perfect to serve just with a garlic naan!
Do let us know if you make this at home and please leave a comment! I hope you enjoy it!
