I’m not sure how it happened, but I spent a lot of money at a little tiny Indian restaurant because their Aloo Gobi was so darn amazing. To save myself from being completely broke, I decided I would just make it myself. So here it is…ta-da!
There is something magical about potatoes and Indian spices…Honestly, I could eat this everyday. It’s savory and creamy, and oh-so satisfying!
And I could eat it everyday and be super healthy! That’s what I love about vegan Indian food.
Turmeric is an excellent anti-inflammatory with some super cancer-fighting properties, especially when mixed with a bit of black pepper.
Ginger is beneficial for digestion.
Potatoes are so high in potassium that eating four medium potatoes (2-3 inches in diameter, ~165 calories/potato) a day, would get you to easily reach the recommended daily amount of 3,500 – 4,700 mg. Eating the recommended amount of potassium can lower high blood pressure without medication. Unfortunately, 98% of Americans don’t eat enough potassium. So eat more potatoes!
