ALOO SABJI INGREDIENTS

Boiling Potatoes for Sabji

  • Clean the Aloos (potatoes) thoroughly with water. Add them to the pressure cooker and fill with water covering the potatoes.
  • Add some salt and pressure cook the potatoes for 3 to 4 whistles in the medium flame. If we pressure cook for more than 4 whistles, the potatoes will become more tender and may break while stirring them in the cooking pan.
  • Once the pressure is completely released, peel the potatoes skin, chop them into small cubical sized pieces and keep them aside.

Methods for making Aloo Sabji

  • Heat the pan with the required amount of oil. Add mustard and cumin seeds. Once it spluttered, completely turn the flame to simmer since it splutters over you while adding curry leaves. After adding curry leaves again make the flame in simmer mode. So that the tempering ingredients will not get over fried.
Tempering Ingredients
  • Add chopped onions in the medium flame and saute them until it becomes transparent. Next, add ginger garlic paste and saute it in the lower flame so that the paste does not splutters over you. Then add chopped tomatoes and saute them in a medium flame until it turns mushy.

Quick Tips

  • If we add a pinch of salt while sauteing onions and tomatoes, it will turn mushy soon which will reduce our cooking time.
  • In case if we added more water to the curry, turn the flame too high and bring it to a boil, so that the water will evaporate and you can adjust with your desired consistency.
  • When we add masalas, we should saute the masalas well, which means we should saute them until it leaves oil from the pan so that we will not feel raw smell while having the curry with the main course.
Super yummy sabji is ready.
