Hi Mangs - No, bay leaf always goes first so it can fry in the hot oil before you add the rest of the ingredients.

Great to have some new blog buddies. Hope you guys try the recipes and give me a shout.

Just came across your site today. I am a desi living in China now. I only know how to make only 2 or 3 indian dishes so I am looking forward to giving some of your a whirl. Mahalo.

Looks fantastic Mallika! I need an excuse to make garam masala to have on hand so when I yodle out an “ALOO…..” (instead of yahoo or waahoo) folks round these parts know what I’m up to.

Congrats to the sis, keep up the fantastic work yourself.

Wow! My favorite dish. I absolutely love cauliflower. Do not watch too much Bollywood, but have to watch your sister’s movie.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Not one, but two wonderful aloo gobi recipes and you were so sweet to email and let me know they were there! My mother arrives for a visit in two weeks - plenty of time to try these out and wow her. Hubby thanks you dearly too. He’s finally getting the yummy Indian cooking he thought he’d get by marrying a Bengali gal.

Take care,
Shohini

Great to have some new bloggers on site.

Mandira - You are actually supposed to fry them before you add them to the curry. But this is quick Indian cooking so it saves time to add them in directly. Also, I am fairly fat conscious and don’t like pre-frying before frying as it were.

Try my version next time and see what you think.
