Kharra Aloo

Kharra Aloo is a flavorful and aromatic Indian dish made with roasted potatoes, spices, and herbs. This gluten-free delight is perfect for a hearty lunch and bursting with traditional Indian flavors.

Ingredients

• Potatoes - 400 grams
• Mustard oil - 2 tablespoons
• Cumin seeds - 1 teaspoon
• Turmeric powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Red chili powder - 1 teaspoon
• Garam masala - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - to taste
• Fresh coriander leaves - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into bite-sized cubes.
2. In a pot, add the cubed potatoes and enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil and cook until they are just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

4. Add the boiled potatoes to the skillet and stir well to coat them with the oil and spices.
5. Sprinkle in the turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix everything well and cook for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and slightly crispy.
6. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped coriander leaves and lemon juice.
7. Serve hot with rice or gluten-free rotis.
