it took me a while to share this simple and healthy aloo jeera recipe for me as i was busy posting other fancy and complex recipe. i was getting several requests for some simple, quick and healthy sabzi and curries recipe. hence i thought of sharing some simple recipe every week which can be prepare in jiffy. i particularly love this aloo jeera recipe which i prepare it frequently and i also prepare chapati roll from the left over chapati. further, in this recipe i have added extra spices like coriander powder and amchur. but it can also be prepared with just cumin powder.
while the recipe of jeera aloo recipe is extremely simple, yet i would like to share few tips and recommendations. firstly, i have semi boiled the potatoes in cooker and have not fully cooked. basically the potatoes should be fully cooked in the pan with spices and cumin powder so that it absorbs it. secondly, i have used amchur powder in this recipe for the tangy flavour. alternatively, you can also lemon juice or lime juice for the tangy flavour. lastly, i have partially cooked the potatoes in cooker to hasten the entire process. but you can completely cook it the pan by frying it in regular interval.
finally i would like to highlight my other simple curries recipes collection from my blog with jeera aloo recipe. it mainly includes, aloo fry, bhindi fry, karela fry, cabbage fry, sprout curry, soya chunks fry, dahi bhindi, bhaingan bharta and sol kadhi recipe. in addition dod visit my other recipes collection like,
