About Aloo matar

Aloo Matar is a flavorful vegetarian dish from Indian cuisine that combines potatoes (aloo) and green peas (matar) in a spiced tomato-based gravy. Typically enhanced with onions, garlic, ginger, and a blend of aromatic spices such as turmeric, cumin, and coriander, this dish is both comforting and nutritious. Potatoes are a good source of carbohydrates, providing energy, while peas are rich in protein, fiber, and essential vitamins like A, C, and K. The spices used not only add depth of flavor but also offer potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. However, it’s important to note that the dish's nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation—excess oil or cream may increase calorie content. Aloo Matar pairs well with whole-grain options like brown rice or whole-wheat roti to create a balanced and satisfying meal.
