Momo's To Paratha, 10 Ways To Have Aloo In Your Meal

By Risha Ganguly

Potatoes might have been introduced to the Indians by the Portuguese, but we have made it our own. We have several aloo dishes made in different parts of the country. Here are 10 Desi aloo recipes that you need to try.

Dum Aloo

Kashmiri aloo dum, stuffed with paneer, is made in a thick, creamy curry and tastes best with Kashmiri pulao.

Aloo Paratha

This is the favourite breakfast dish of many parts of North India like Punjab, Delhi and Haryana. Serve it with curd and enjoy.

Aloo Momo

If you think momo is only good when stuffed with meat, then you need to try aloo momo. It is super filling and goes well with spicy garlic chutney.

Aloo Chokha

Mashed potatoes are good, but Desi aloo ka chokha is so flavourful that it is the only thing you need to pair with plain dal-chawal.

Aloo Chop

Mashed masala potatoes, covered with a thick besan layer and then deep fried - there is nothing to not love about this snack.

Tikki Chaat

While there are multiple types of chaat, tikki chaat has it's own charm. The mix of matar and aloo tikki is delicious.

Aloo Tamatar

This plain sabji goes well with hot, deep fried pooris and parathe. The one pot dish is easy and quick to cook.

Bombay Sandwich

A sandwich filled with boiled potatoes, sliced veggies and sev, Bombay sandwich is a complete meal in itself.

Aloo Methi

The humble aloo goes well with everything and slightly bitter methi is the perfect addition to the neutral taste of potatoes.

Fries

There is no one who does not like crispy potato fries. They are the best snack one can have.
