Aloo Pyaz Recipe | Punjabi Aloo Pyaz Sabzi | Quick Potato Onion Curry with step-by-step photo and video recipe. There are numerous types and myriad ways a potato curry recipe can be made. There are basic and premium potato curries that can be made for different types of occasions and meal times. One such easy and simple, yet considered to be a premium potato curry is Aloo Pyaz Sabji where both potato and onions are treated as hero ingredients.
As I explained earlier, there are so many different types of potato curries across India. There are individual and tailored curries for each region and state. Yet there certain types of potato curries that are practiced across India and this is one such type of curry. The use of onions and potatoes in the traditional gravy base makes it more likable. Also, both onions and potatoes complement each other and thus give an experience of premium curry. The same curry is even further extended by adding other hero ingredients like paneer and mushroom. Adding these does not make it more premium and more importantly not mandatory. Do try this and I am very sure that it would be appreciated by all your family members.
In addition, some more useful and critical tips, suggestions, and variations to the Aloo Pyaz recipe. Firstly, in this recipe, I have selected small baby potatoes. Baby potatoes are tender and ideal for any curries. However, not mandatory, and if you do not have access to it, you can use normal potatoes and cut them into small sizes. Secondly, I have made this curry in the pressure cooker to hasten the cooking process. However, pressure cooking can be tricky so you can use the open cooking vessel to prepare it. Lastly, I have shown the gravy version of Punjabi Aloo Pyaz Sabzi which is super popular. But you may also make it a dry version without a gravy base.
