About Aloo matar curry

Aloo Matar Curry is a flavorful Indian dish made with potatoes ("aloo") and green peas ("matar") simmered in a spiced tomato-based gravy. Originating from North India, this vegetarian comfort food is a staple in households and a popular feature in Indian cuisine. Key ingredients include onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, chilies, turmeric, cumin, and garam masala, which together create its rich, aromatic profile. Aloo Matar is rich in dietary fiber, vitamins A, C, and K from the peas, and potassium from the potatoes, making it a source of energy and supporting digestion and immunity. The use of spices like turmeric offers anti-inflammatory benefits. However, it can be calorie-dense depending on the amount of oil or ghee used in its preparation. Pairing it with whole-grain roti or brown rice can enhance its nutritional value, making it a hearty yet balanced meal choice.
