Indian Aloo Gobi is a spiced potato and cauliflower dish that comes from the Punjab region in India, the northern area of the country.  Potatoes were brought to India by the Portuguese and are a staple ingredient in their cuisine.

Potatoes paired with cauliflower was new to me and made for a wonderful combination especially spiced up!  Indian Aloo Gobi is a hearty vegetarian dish made in the dry style that is sure to please.
