Potato In Green Gravy


One more recipe from me , which is discovered by me, that too just few hours ago:)). I was in little hurry and as it not allowed to eat spicy food these days, I made this simple, quick and healthy recipe with lovely potatoes. For which me and hubby together named " Potato in Green Gravy" , if you have any other suggestion for naming it, you are most welcome, I know that how much enthu we all were to suggest some name at VKN 's Mydhaba, when he asked for some good suggestions for naming his third little baby boy... :D.

Here is my recipe for this quick meal with potato..
Ingredients :
Potatoes ,boiled and peeled
1 cup Coriander leaves,
2 green chilies ,
4-5 Garlic cloves,
3-4 Mint leaves,
Salt to taste,
Mustard seeds,
Cumin seeds ,
A pinch of Asafoetida,
7-8 curry leaves,
1/2 tsp Oil .

Method:
Boil potatoes until they are tender and soft. Peel them and cut into medium sized cubes. Keep it aside.
Now wash coriander leaves, roughly chop green chilies . In a grinder - mix coriander leaves, mint leaves, garlic cloves and green chillies together, add little water while grinding. Put this paste on side .
Now in a Kadhai take little oil and add mustard seeds, when they start spluttering add cumin seeds , curry leaves and asafoetida powder to it.Next add the smooth green paste to it. and let it cook for just a minute ,then add potatoes cut in to cubes to it. cook it for a while until the gravy is thick enough, add salt to it .

Potato in Green gravy is ready to serve. Serve hot in these cool days along with Papad, and chapati with little Ghee rolled over it. : )

Dish looks and recipe sounds delicious Pooja!

Well..name I can't think of except (I am writing it laughingly) "Toad in the swamp":D

In England, there is a dish called "Toad in the hole"!You make hole in the center of a toast and break an egg in the middle while it is cookng on the pan!They make it for breakfast.

Say again Trupti - "Hariyali Bataka (aloo) Bhaji". Or, with a slight change - "Bataka nu hariyali shaak". What would you choose now?

Nice result Pooja. Cheers!
