Last night the hubby got cooking – his interest was triggered by my loud thinking on what I intend to do with the baby potatoes lying around. My thoughts oscillated between a dum aloo and a Nepali aloo ka achar, but soon as we reached home, he announced he wants to do his thing. Diligently, I boiled the potatoes while he prepped the veggies. The end result turned out so nice that I decided it just had to be shared.
