Potato And Pea Curry: An Excellent Kapha-Pacifying Recipe

Potato and pea curry is one of the best dishes to pacify Kapha dosha. White potatoes are generally not considered the healthiest veggie, but they have a lot to offer – especially for those with Kapha dosha. Did you know that they provide potassium, vitamin C, magnesium, and fibre among other nutrients? And the humble green pea is a nutritional powerhouse while being super-low on fat. This benefits Kapha types, who often struggle with weight gain. Potato and pea curry is easy to cook and great to taste.
