Dum Aloo (Whole Potatoes In Spicy Yogurt Gravy) Recipe
"ALOO DUM or DUM ALOO" is a popular side dish taken usually with puris,chappathis or parathas in the North India.The word "ALoo" in Hindi means Potato. Its usually cooked under pressure so the potatoes get soaked in the gravy and so the name Dum (pressure in Hindi) in dum aloo. Since potato is rich in carbohydrates, this dish is good for children.It is quite a heavy lunch. This is the first time I am making this recipe and it came out very good.
