Potato in Curd Gravy Recipe | Dahi wale Aloo | Dahi Aloo Recipe

Potato in curd gravy is one of the famous North Indian recipes. It is a combined with yummy yogurt cream which tastes good with puri or chapathi or paratha.

Based on the quantity of oil, red chilli powder and curd, the colour of this recipe changes. While making gravy if you use old curd then it may taste a bit sour so choose fresh one. We can make this recipe either in an open vessel with a lid or even in a pressure cooker.

While cooking this recipe we need to cook at low heat as yogurt may become bitter in taste and ruin the whole recipe. We can even mix spice masala powders while beating curd.

Here are some tips to make perfect potato in curd gravy:

1. Choose the right kind of potatoes: Choose starchy potatoes, like Russet potatoes, to make the dish. They have a fluffy texture and absorb the flavors of the gravy well.
2. Boil the potatoes correctly: Boil the potatoes until they are soft and cooked through, but not mushy. Drain and let them cool down before dicing them.
3. Use fresh ingredients: Use fresh yogurt, and the freshest spices and herbs possible to get the best flavor.
4. Use a mix of spices: Use a blend of spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric, and red chili powder to create a flavorful and aromatic gravy. You can also add other spices like garam masala, bay leaves, and cloves to add more depth to the dish.
5. Temper the spices correctly: Temper the spices in hot oil before adding the yogurt to the dish. This will help to bring out their flavors and aromas.
6. Cook the yogurt carefully: When adding the yogurt to the dish, make sure to whisk it well and cook it on low heat to prevent curdling.
7. Use the right amount of water: Add just enough water to create a smooth and creamy gravy. Too much water can make the dish watery and bland.
8. Adjust the seasoning: Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add more salt, spices, or chili powder to suit your taste.

By following these tips, you can make a delicious and flavorful Dahi Wale Aloo that is perfect for a comforting lunch or dinner.
