POTATO SABJI | SIDE DISH FOR ROTI | NO ONION NO GARLIC

potato gravy
This time i  am here to post a recipe with potato.This my mom makes and we all are a great fan of this. And we use to call it as ALOO DHUM. But now,after coming through so many recipes in the various blogs,i don’t think the name aloo dhum will justify this recipe.And i am not a creative person to name it on my own,so i have given the name potato sabzi.
The specialty of the recipe is it doesn’t  need any garlic or onion. According to me,any thing we make, as an  accompaniment for chapathi, poori or pulao without using onions will not taste good. But after tasting this,i changed my mind.Without boring u much,here comes the recipe.
Check out my similar recipe of aloo tamatar.
