Weeknight Aloo Gobi Saag image

Whenever I am craving Indian food, a golden saag always appears in my mind's eye. Popping mustard and cumin seeds sizzling alongside soft sweet potatoes or cauliflower, adorned with wilted collard greens. Saag dishes are most commonly eaten in the Indian subcontinent in Nepal, Odisha, and West Bengal. It's traditionally served with a maize flour roti, fluffy naan, or chapati in the Punjab region, where it's most commonly eaten.

This was the worst aloo gobi saag I've ever had. The potatoes were undercooked, the cauliflower was tough, and the spinach was slimy.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it would have been better if I had used a different type of spinach, like baby spinach.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by reducing the amount of chili powder.

This recipe was easy to follow and turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a bit more salt.
