Tandoori Aalo

I always wonder why am i doing so many specials with non veg as a main ingredient. But what happens to people who is purely a vegetarian. What does they do??? I wonder what all specials can we make with veggies same as non veg. Then when im discussing this with my hubby he said that, he dont what is the recipe but he once ate some aloo curry looked like a whole aloo made into some fry and its very spicy and tasty. These are the things he said that day and told me to try it. I once tried it like normal fry when i got the baby potatoes one day. But when he ate that he said that its not matching the taste that he had it that day. So then again my thinking process started of how to make it??? One day when i got the idea of making veggie dish as non veg recipe process then i thought of doing it with Aloo again. Then i tried this recipe and its a big hit and he said that this is the one he had long back and this is the taste he is expecting for.....At last im so happy for the successful dish by me which he is asking me from long time. And being a pure veggie item with a non veg touch i gave it a name "Tandoori Aloo".

Ingredients :-

Aloo - 8 (as small as possible)
Onions - 2 (small)
Chillis - 4 to 5
Chilli powder - 1tsp
Turmeric - 1/2 tsp
Red Color - pinch (optional)
Coriander - few leaves finely chopped
Curd - 1/2 small cup
Oil - 3to4 tsp
Garam Masala - 2tsp
Salt to taste

Procedure :-

  • Potatoes boiled and peel the skin and keep them aside.
  • In a blender add onions and grind it little bit (not to a paste but have to see the some flakes too) and then add the green chillis, salt and grind it again and add this paste to the boiled aloo and keep it aside.
  • Add all the other ingredients to the potatoes except coriander and curd and mix well.
  • Heat oil in a pan and add these potatoes to it and saute it frequently at regular intervals to avoid blackening.
  • When it is turning its color to dark brown color add the curd and fry it till all the curd evaporates from it.
  • Finish it off with coriander and serve it with rice. (not only with rice but can have it as an appetizer too).
