Nutty Potato Masala - Kati Moongphali Aloo Masala

A super delicious vegetarian side dish, this is incredibly easy to make and I served this up as part of my Diwali menu - but of course makes a great potato dish anytime. Simply delicious, it uses the zesty flavours of our Tikka Masala paste, with the peanuts adding a lovely crunch.
