Aloo Gobi Matar is a popular Indian curry with potato ("aloo"), cauliflower ("gobi"), and peas ("matar"). It's easy to make and quickly on your dinner table. We put our take on it with an ayurvedic spice blend that brings a touch of freshness to the dish, just right for the summertime. Alternatively, the spice blend makes an exotic rub for grilling.
