Pealo Curry = (Peanut + Aloo)

Updated: Apr 20, 2022

(Wersja polska napisana poniżej:)

A curry which is rich in color and nutty flavor, mainly it comes from West-Southern part of India. Why the name is called Pealo, it is blend with Peanut and aloo (potato), which is commonly known as Aloo in Hindi language. Potatoes are rich in carbohydrate, So it's a complete meal itself. And it combines peanut and cashew nut, which gives curry a nutty, creamy, rich texture and flavor.

Well, nutty flavor is nicely blended with eggplant curry. But I've tried fusion with potatoes and let me tell you! It didn't disappoint me. You can pair it with roti/ chapatti/ parathas and many more. Enjoy hot!

It's aromatic in flavor, you can feel aroma around, when you cook it.
