10th May 2009 - Dinner - Aloo Gravy (Different Recipe)

What?
Dinner was Aloo Gravy again, but with a different recipe, this one easier and hassle-free. Just dice potatoes and cook them in a pressure-cooker. No need to boil potatotes beforehand and the whole thing gets cooked in about 15 minutes.

How did it look?

Improvements
  • What I made is a highly no-frills version of the dish. Normally, we can add a tomato (chopped) to thicken the gravy a bit and also improve the taste. Also, an onion (chopped) would help.
  • In case the gravy is too thin, it helps to boil the thing for some time. I added some pepper and a hint of oregano to make it taste even better.
  • In most cases, we assume that dishes are supposed to be either salty or sweet. In reality, it does not work that way, and adding a pinch of sugar to dishes like these actually does wonders. Also, some sour stuff like fresh lemon juice/neebu sat (citric acid) or whatever you have will help.
