    Ingredients

    Making potato masala for puri is routine, but at times, I crave for tangy gravy. Mostly chana masala will be my choice if I plan prior. This rasawala aloo is a great quick fix for poori.

    I make a no onion no garlic aloo bhaji with methi flavor as we temper with methi seeds. This one is totally different flavor from that one. Main ingredient in this recipe is tomato apart from Potato.

    Naturally vegan and gluten free (provided using gluten free asafoetida) No onion No garlic side dish for Indian flatbreads.

      You forgot to add potatoes in the ingredients in the recipe card. How many can we add for 3 tomatoes.
