  What a wonderful mix of tastes! We don't like to eat hot, so I left out the chilli. Added the chickpeas to make it a complete meal. Delicious!

  Disappointing. We love sag aloo and have it with a simple dahl for dinner sometimes. I was really looking forward to this recipe as it had rave reviews, however, I found something was missing but can't put my finger on it. My husband liked it but preferred the other recipe I use too.

  Just made this for tonight's dinner. Really good as it is, but will try with chick peas next time and maybe a chopped tomato just before serving, for freshness. The only thing i did differently was to wilt the spinach and squeeze out a bit of excess liquid (which can be bitter) before adding to the potato. A knob of butter stirred in at the end also adds to the flavour.

  This was lovely and fresh tasting. I used baby new potatoes and frozen spinach which was just fine. Served with Fried Fish & Tomato Curry from this site.

  Brilliant recipe - very easy and cook. I added a can of chickpeas and used sweet potato instead of normal potato - worked really well.

  Really enjoyed this. Added Chick peas and also cracked a couple off eggs on top at end went surprisingly well a bit like an Indian hash.

  Followed the recipe as shown and was very pleased. We had it as a side dish to chicken tikka masala, which worked very well. Looking forward to doing it again.

  I made too much of this recipe, so I wrapped the remainder in filo pastry and put them in the oven for 15 minutes. They were a tasty snack! Delicious.

  Wow! Considering this recipe uses such simple ingredients it was a great success. Even my children thoroughly enjoyed this side dish and it will definitely be added to the family favourites.

  Just made this; very tasty, proper lip tingling curry. I found that crushing the potatoes and mashing them through the spice mix improves the texture, generally and really combines the dish which I think is what it needs, as per the previous comments re; "something missing" by Sam Bloomin' tasty!!

  This was average. Easy to cook, not much effort required, but very little flavour in the actual potatoes, all the flavour is in the onion and spice mixture which doesn't coat the potatoes enough. My family and I love sag aloo and this is very disappointing, I'm amazed that so many people gave it 4 or 5 stars.
