Straight from U.P......Aloo Wadi


Aloo Wadi

2 Big Potatoes, Peeled and cut in cubes
Dal Wadiya Fried in little oil and crushed in smaller pieces

1 Tomato, chopped
1 tsp oil
1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds
1 1/2 tsp Coriander Pd
1/2 tsp Haldi
1/2 tsp Garam Masala
Pinch of ginger Pd
1 Green Chili Chopped
Salt
1/2 cup chopped Coriander Leaves


Heat oil in a Pressure Cooker, add cumin seeds. Let it splutter and then add green chili and chopped tomatoes. Let it cook for 2 Mins till u can see oil on sides. (add few spoon of water if needed) Now add all the masalas and stir fry for a min. Mix potatoes in the masala very well and add water. (If u want thick gravy add less water it goes well with puris, but in U.P we prefer Rasse wali Sabji)
Cook it till done. Garnish with lots of coriander leaves.

Serve Garma Garam Aloo Wadi with Garam Chapati.
My Thaali--- Kaddu ki sabji, Aloo wadi, Boondi ka raita and Chapati.

yes bhawana, you can make this version of noodles .. but the noodles i have used is very thin, if the nooodles you have is thick, then this recipe will not suitable .. the thickness of this noodles is as much as vermicilli that u use for kheer ..
