Most vindaloo recipes that you’ll find are for chicken vindaloo – A tomato based dish with a complex blend of spices which, very often, packs quite a bit of heat. I wanted to take that same dish, but turn it into a completely vegetarian meal – worth of my non-vegetarian friends.
Potato Vindaloo is a spicy potato curry that has a distinct taste. It is perfect for a vegetarian lunch or dinner. It has many variations depending on the ingredients available regionally, but is universally high on spice levels.
