Most of the people likes potato cooked in any form. This dry curry best matches with Chapathi and packed for lunch boxes.

Hi Sashi,
Made this for lunch today as a side for sambhar rice. It was really tasty, and we all loved it!
I did sprinkle some water and cover it to speed up the cooking as I was in a hurry. Will make it w/o water next time :)
Also, the color was very different, even before adding the water. More brownish. I don’t know if I can change that.
Your dish looks awesome though! Very tempting :)
Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I don’t know where I went wrong … I prepared this and it looks completely different from yours. I have a couple of questions :- Do we have to put water for cooking potatoes? Can we put the masalas after potato is cooked. I think in the process of getting potatoes cooked, I burnt masala powders and that is why looks different.

Aaroo, you can add masalas after adding potatoes. If you are burning the masalas, try sprinkling some water. I updated my steps to keep this in mind.

hi Shasi ur blog is really great…i keep on browsing almost everyday to find something new to try…by the way in this aloo gobi fry, do we need to chop the potato to small pcs…becoz i was wondering how the potato will be well cooked since we don’t add any water….:-)
at 3:35 PM
Thanks Vanitha for ur sweet words !! yes we need to chop potatoes into small pieces. With reduced heat they will be cooked soft without even adding water. Hope this helps.
