By on Thursday, February 7th, 2013 | No Comments

I never thought a grape recipe could excite me until I tried the Bangladeshi recipe! “Check out this grape recipe I’m making for lunch.” I said earlier this morning to my wife Caroline.

Bombay aloo is a quick and easy dish to make. I have always liked bombay aloo when eating out at Indian restaurants. For some reason, however, I didn’t think bombay aloo would be one my kids like.
