Why do I like it?
First of all, I love Indian food and spices, but have never made any at home. This dish was as satisfying as any - and you don't for a minute miss the meat! It is a hearty main dish which goes well with quinoa or other grains.
This is an easy "one pot" meal. Leftovers are great! I like to garnish with cauliflower sour cream.
Any recipe notes or tweaks?
No tweaks needed here! I did add the cauliflower sour cream garnish. It would also be good with cashew sour cream or non-dairy raita sauce.
