This Thermomix Aloo Matar is a beautiful and hearty vegetarian curry dish. 'Aloo' means potato and 'matar' means pea, hence potato and pea curry. Many thanks to Kirsty, a ThermoFun Member who asked me if I could convert an old family favourite of theirs.

Could you replace the water with coconut milk?

Yes I would think that would go well actually. Let us know if you try it. :)

I made this yesterday. We enjoyed it. So much so that I'm about to make another batch for the freezer.
