Delicious and a welcome change from traditional Desi gobi recipes. I omitted the cream to make the dish lighter and added about 1/2 cup extra yougurt to compensate. 1/8 tsp. white chili powder was added in place of chilies, and the onions and ginger were ground into a paste. Thanks for posting blue sparrow--this was awesome! :)
