Aloo ki bhajji (Veggies cooked in spicy potato base)

   Hi guys,  i just added a new ingredient to our traditionally prepared vegetable curry/bhajji.  Instead of cooking in normal onion-tomato and other base, i added boiled potatos with other spices. The result was amazing,  gravy came out quite well and did an excellant combo with roti.

  • One handful of pudhina/mint leaves
  • 1 tsp jeera
For making bhajji
