Potatoes in particular is an universal favourite veggie. So is potato curry in any form - dry or with gravy. Aloo ki sabzi is a very common Indian side dish that is prepared in almost every household. Each family or region has it's own recipe.
Today I bring to you my version of a simple potato curry that is a perfect side dish with parathas, poori, pakwan, chapatis or rice. I added some sambar powder to enhance the flavour. They also can be relished with dosa, appam and idiyappam too. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare it.
