Saag Aloo

Heat Rating: Mild

Serves 4 (as a little dish)

Ingredients

  • 1.5 tablespoons of Mama Dor’s Saag Aloo spice blend

  • 3 large potatoes, peeled and chopped roughly into medium / small chunks

  • 1 large onion, peeled and diced

  • 250g fresh spinach

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Method

Add the potatoes, onions and olive oil into a deep-frying pan and stir well.

Cook on a high heat, stirring regularly for five minutes.

Add the Mama Dor’s spice blend and give it a good stir.

Cover and turn the heat down.

Leave to cook slowly for about 20 minutes, until the potatoes are mostly cooked through. Do stir occasionally to avoid the potatoes sticking.

Stir in the spinach, cover and leave for a further 10 minutes.

Enjoy as a side dish, or as a light lunch with warm chapatis.

Alternative Uses

Substitute the potatoes for sweet potatoes or even butternut squash for a delicious alternative.
