- When the potatoes are done, peel the skin and mash half the potatoes and cut the other half of potatoes into uniform sized cubes
- Add green chilli, finely chopped ginger & garlic, wheat flour to the mashed half of potatoes
- Add oil in a pan and add cumin seeds
- Add the mashed potatoes mixture onto the pan
- Add the curd immediately and stir it pretty well until the mashed potatoes and the curd mixture jell well. Add salt as needed.
- Keep the stove on medium flame and close the pan with a lid. Leave it for 10 minutes
- After 10 minutes, add the other half of the cubed-potatoes and stir well. Leave the whole mixture for another 10 minutes on medium flame
- Your Dahi aloo is all set and garnish with a little bit of fresh coriander leaves.
- A very nice side dish for Rotis and Parathas.
