Dum Aloo is a classic North Indian dish of baby potatoes simmered in a rich, fragrant tomato and onion gravy. This quicker version skips the deep frying and slow cooking, but retains all the flavour thanks to a creamy ginger-garlic paste, fresh cream and the Sunrise Aloo Dum Masala. Serve with roti or basmati rice for a satisfying vegetarian meal that's ready in under an hour.
Sunrise tip: For a richer gravy, add a spoonful of cream or a knob of butter at the end of cooking.
