Aloo Kurma

This Aloo Kurma is my grandma s speciality dish which my mom inherited and now I make it often for dinner in a jiffy. One more interesting aspect of this dish is that I will surely get appreciation from my dad when I make this .

Ingredients:

Aloo - 2 boiled , peeled

Onions - 1 sliced

Tomato - 1 Sliced

Coconut - 1 cup

Green chillies - 2

Cilantro - a handful

Ginger Garlic paste - 1 Tea spoon

Clove , Cardomom , Cinnamon - 1 each

A Pinch of Garam Masala Powder

Salt to taste

Method:

Boil the potatoes and peel them. Cut them into small pieces and keep them aside. In the blender mix Coconut and green chillies to a fine paste . In a wok heat a little oil , add the spices followed by the sliced onions and tomatoes. Saute till the onions are light brown in color. Add the boiled potatoes and the coconut paste . Bring it to boil. Add a pinch of Garam masala for the aroma . When the kurma is done , that is when the flavour of raw green chillies is gone , remove from fire add salt and garnish with fresh cilantro. This goes well with chapathi or roti.
