Dum Aloo Recipe | Punjabi Dum Aloo Recipe | Dhaba Style Dum Aloo with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Dum aloo is the most famous Indian curry of Kashmir, North India. However, the dhaba or restaurant-style dum aloo recipe is a thick yogurt-based curry prepared with baby potatoes. This makes an ideal gravy curry for most of the flat Indian flatbreads.

Indian cuisine and curries are synonyms with each other with each state of Indian having its take on curries and sabzi’s. The dum aloo recipe is one of the simple and basic veg curries of India. There are other versions of this curry like the Punjabi dum aloo recipe, the Kashmiri style dum aloo, and the Bengali dum aloo recipe. I like Punjabi dum aloo recipes out of all other varieties. The main reason is that it is simple without any creamy tomato-based gravy. Here is the best recipe you can surprise your friends and family along with garlic butter naan or rotis. The flavors are enhanced when dum aloo is cooked on low flame.

In an authentic Punjabi dum aloo recipe, once the baby potatoes are cooked they are deep-fried till they turn golden brown. you do not have to worry, as I have not deep-fried. without compensating with flavors and taste, I have fried it with very little oil in a kadai. the recipe tastes exactly like the one served in the restaurant as I have asked the chef to share the recipe. One important note not to miss, always poke the aloos well before frying. this helps potatoes to become spongy absorb juices from gravy and taste great.

notes:

• Firstly, make sure to not over cook the potato as the aloo will be again cooked in the curry.
• Also, make the curry slightly spicy for a rich masaladear flavour.
• Additionally, if you do not have access to small potatoes, you can cube the big-sized potatoes.
• Finally, Dum Aloo Recipe tastes great when prepared with a generous amount of oil.
