Vegan Potato and Cauliflower Curry

Another gorgeous day again, the sun was out and I think the thermometer went up to 15C. This always makes it more fun at work since we can play outside with the kids. The kids are way happier outside than cooped up in the school. After work I meet Philip at the gym so that we could go on another lake front jog, we also rode our bikes to get a full work out in.

As I’ve said before curry is a favorite in our house, whether its Thai, India, spicy or sweet we do love our curries. Tonight’s curry was a very simple dish of potatoes and cauliflower mixed with fragrant spices and tomatoes. I also made my own flat breads for the first time, I could have simply got store bought ones but I wanted a complete dinner made by me and of course completely vegan! I’m trying to convert my other son to be a fill time vegan.

These potatoes are called “little gems” they are a combination of red, yellow and blue mini potatoes. Their fresh taste and colorful appearance make them a welcome addition to any meal, especially curries!

You can serve this curry with flat breads and yoghurt but Philip also likes it with a bit of rice. You could also serve it with some quinoa if you like.

Cauliflower and potato curry is called Aloo Gobi Masala which is a traditional Indian curry. Sometimes peas are added to this curry but we opted for spring onions.

These little flat breads are very simple to make, I placed everything into a food processor with a dough blade and it did everything for me. If you don’t have a food processor you would have to mix the ingredients by hand and then kneed it for a few minutes by hand. Then you can simply pan sear them for a few minutes.
