Potato Love

We are a potato loving family. I call potato, our family vegetable. Beginning with my father-in-law, my boys, my neices and nephews all share a crazy love for a simple potato fry like this Chettinadu style potato curry.

Potato capsicum cashew masala, and aloo moong a finger licking gravy dishes, which my boys love with flatbreads.

We love this delish potato nibbles, made in air-fryer. Imli aloo, yet another potato curry made a bit tangy with tamarind, makes an excellent side with rice dishes.

If you think potatoes only as fry and gravies, here is a tempting appetizer quinoa and potato tikki and aloo bonda makes a great finger food for your next party.

Sides for Indian Flat breads

We at home love both gravy and dry curries as side for our roti. Paneer capsicum subzi Zaffrani paneer and chili paneer are in house favorites. Next to paneer, it is potatoes and chana or black eyed peas gravy.

Kids prefer dry subzi when i pack roti for their school box. I make it like a roll, so it is easy for them to pick and eat. If i m making roti for dinner, then it is definitely gravy. Aloo hariyali, potatoes in green gravy and aloo ke jhol are my absolute favorites. Both the curries are easy to make for a crowd and tastes amazing.
