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!

Still sounds good, though…such fabulous in-ur-face flavors! Lovely =) Thanks so much for sharing w/ Two for Tuesdays =)
Looks delicious I make it similar
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!
Mmm, I love potatoes smothered in sauce. Thank you for linking up at Two for Tuesdays.
I think it looks like something my kids would love, and me too. Thanks for linking to two for tuesdays!
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! 🙂 alex@amoderatelife
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 yummy!
Thanks for linking up!
