dahi aloo recipe | dahi wale aloo recipe | dahi aloo ki sabzi with step by step photo and video recipe. an yoghurt or curd based curry or sabzi ideal for those with special dietary requirements of no onion, no garlic and even no tomatoes. it can be easily prepared within minutes with the boiled aloo and served for lunch or dinner. more frequently dahi aloo ki sabzi is prepared during fasting season of navaratri or other festival seasons.
potato based curries are always a huge hit in my house, especially the sambar, raita or simple sabzi are most preferred one. however, dahi aloo recipe is my personal favourite recipe and i generally enjoy it with steamed rice or jeera rice. having said that my husband typically does not prefer yoghurt based sabzi’s but he is ok with the mor kulumbu or kodekene sambar recipe. he basically does not like extra dry spices like garam masala or kasur methi leaves. hence i prepare this less frequently or with no spice flavours. but in this recipe post i have added all the required spice powders which makes it complete recipe.
while it hardly takes few minutes to cook this dahi based recipe, yet i would like to share few tips for perfect dahi wale aloo recipe. firstly, i heavily recommend to whisk the curd or yoghurt before adding it to the masala. otherwise curd may curdle out leaving white solids behind with excess water. secondly, do not forget to continuously stir the curry after adding curd. in addition cook the curd based curry on a low to medium flame till it boils. lastly add the salt only after curry starts boil otherwise there is a high chance of curdling.
finally i request you to check my other curry or sabzi recipes collection with this post of dahi aloo recipe. it mainly includes dum aloo, aloo jeera, dahi bhindi, aloo palak, veg makhanwala, veg handi, aloo gobi masala, veg kolhapuri, potato saagu and aloo gobi dry recipe. in addition do visit my other recipes collection like,

notes:
- firstly, i have pressure cooked potato / aloo for 3 whistles adding little salt to water.
- also whisk the curd well to avoid it from curdling.
- additionally, add salt only after curd mixture comes to a boil, else there are chances for milk to curdle.
- finally, cook dahi aloo recipe on low flame for rich and creamy texture.

Hey, the curry tastes sour. Is it supposed to taste this way?
slightly sour.. depends on the sourness of curd you are using..

cumin gives flavors.. however you can add a bit of mustard seeds
