I’ve made this recipe from Simply in Season before (way before I started this blog). It didn’t turn out as well as I remembered – read to find out why!
FOR PRINTABLE VERSION CLICK HERE: Vegetable Vindaloo
6 medium potatoes (diced)
3 medium carrots (diced)
1/4 cup vinegar
1 cup onion (diced)
2 tsp salt
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp ground cumin
2 whole cardamom pods
1 cinnamon stick
1/2 tsp pepper
1 1/2 cup peas
1. Combine potatoes, carrots, and vinegar and marinate at room temp for 2 hours.
2. Saute’ the onion in 2 T of oil until brown.
3. Combine the remaining spices in a small bowl, add to onion and saute’ for a few minutes. Add a little water to prevent spices from burning. Drain potatoes and carrots (discard vinegar), add to frypan, and cook for 20-25 minutes).
4. Add peas and cook 5 minutes on low heat. Remove cinnamon stick. Serve hot with rice.
Servings: 6
The Verdict: Something told me I should cover the vegetables. But it didn’t say to in the directions. I should have, I think I must have done so last time because they were drier than I remembered. Also, I forgot to add the peas. Oops. I didn’t miss those. However I did miss something green. Will definitely remember them next time!

Covering the veggies sounds like a good idea and personally I would have missed the peas – I love peas. Thanks for sharing this at Two for Tuesdays this week!

You know what I appreciate most in the foodie world? A blogger who will admit when something didn’t turn out perfectly and they discover the reason why so someone else trying it will be able to adjust! Awesome! I love anything indian, and am trying to get more meatless meals into my family, so with your suggestions, I will try this! Thanks for sharing on the two for tuesday recipe blog hop!

No problem, Alex! I definitely don’t pretend to be perfect on this blog. Laughing out loud at the thought. Learn from your mistakes–or better yet, someone else’s, that’s what I always say!
This sounds so tasty! My boyfriend and I are both vegetarians so I will be definitely thinking about making this when the weather gets cooler again. Which I hope doesn’t happen ANY TIME SOON!
I love Summer!

This sounds almost exactly like Ethiopian Alecha. Alecha doesn’t have the peas, but it does have cabbage in it. All the other ingredients are basically the same. Thanks for participating in Meatless Monday at the Booth!
