I love me a potato curry. Truth be told I love any kind of curry, but I especially love me a potato curry. Or anything potato for that matter.
It would be a toss up between which I love more, potatoes or garlic (see last post), and I could happily eat potatoes in any form on a daily basis (potatoes and garlic = heaven).
Curry is an incredibly versatile dish, anything goes and you can make it as simple or as complex as you like. This spicy vegan curry dum aloo is Punjabi style, and I would say that it’s about average in terms of complexity.
Not because it’s particularly difficult, but because there are several steps involved and it takes a bit of time to put together. But it’s totally worth it.
Baby potatoes are first fried and then simmered in a spice-infused tomato-based gravy, allowing them to suck up all that spicy tomato-y goodness. Yum!
Versions of this recipe call for either curd, which more or less something like yoghurt, or heavy cream. However, if you don’t want to use dairy, you can use cashews and a squeeze of lemon to give it a bit of tang.
This spicy vegan potato curry will fill your kitchen with wonderful smells, and if you live in an apartment like we do, you can make your neighbours jealous with the lovely aromas.
Unless your neighbours are like ours and complain about absolutely everything, in that case you’re better off getting new neighbours who know how to appreciate life and a good curry (which is essential to life).
This spicy vegan potato curry is fantastic served with rice or naan and alongside other Indian vegan dishes like this yellow lentil dal recipe or these easy vegan samosas with quick mango chutney.
