:-D Right now i have the biggest smile on my face!!!
The reason being, My friends know me to be one person they have known who is so madly in love with potatoes that i can possibly eat various dishes of potatoes for all 3 meals...and not to forget snack on them as well!!! ;)
Well, that's true to the extent that i do love potatoes..They are the easiest to cook and get done with..and also pretty appetizing! ;) Anyways, it been over a year I stopped my potato glutton and shed a few pounds too.. :) "blush"
Getting back to the recipe... Aloo mattar gravy is one recipe i saw a family friend make and found it yummy! (considering i loved only potato fry..and any another form of potato given to me would instantly find a "not so appetizing" look on my face! )
Ingredients:
Grind the tomatoes, onions, & green chilli together in to a puree. Now add oil in a bowl and add the ginger garlic paste. Fry for a while. Now add the puree to the ginger garlic paste and let it cook for a while. Add potatoes (in case they are not boiled, so that it can cook along with the puree). Cook the 2 together till the raw taste does not disappear.Add salt as well.
Now add the peas. After a while add red chilli powder, turmeric powder, & jeera powder. Let them all cook. Later, add the amchur powder and garam masala and mix well. You can let the gravy thicken by cooking it a little longer or leave it as is.
Garnish with finely chopped coriander leaves!
Ta da!!!
