I just love Indian food. \u00a0After Puerto Rican or Cuban food, it\u2019s my absolute favorite. \u00a0There ain\u2019t nothing more comforting to me than sitting down with a steaming plate of mattar paneer (with no peas\u2026because I\u2019m weird like that) over rice. \u00a0Now that I\u2019m grain free, rice is no longer an option for me, so I go for my next favorite Indian dish: aloo gobi. \u00a0Now, traditionally, aloo gobi involves stewed tomatoes, potatoes and cauliflower. \u00a0But, here\u2019s the thing: I like stewed chickpeas, too. \u00a0So, a few years ago I tried something really crazy: I made aloo gobi with<\/em> chickpeas. Yes, I\u2019m a wild one. \u00a0I tried it once, and I\u2019ve never gone back.<\/p>\n

Now known throughout my family as \u201cthe Indian dish\u201d, it\u2019s requested regularly for our weekly Sabbath meal, and I am convinced it was the dish that turned a few of my family members around on the whole Indian cuisine thing. \u00a0And, really, what\u2019s not to love? \u00a0You start with a rich tomato-based broth, flavored with Indian spices. \u00a0Throw some potatoes, cauliflower and chickpeas in, and let the vegetables simmer with the Indian spices until fork-tender. \u00a0And, voila, in less than half an hour, you can have a restaurant-style Indian curry dish right at home.<\/p>\n
