Ingredients

Ingredients For Kashmiri Dum Aloo Recipe

Methods
  • 1. First, you need to boil the potatoes until you are just able to peel off their skin easily. I took water in a large pan and put it on heat. Once it was warm, I added in the potatoes.
  • 2. Let it come to a boil. Once the water came to a boil, I switched off the flame and covered the pan. Let it remain covered for around 15 minutes.
  • 3. Drain the water and peel the potatoes. The skin would come off easily. Following this method, the potatoes were perfectly boiled, just what you need for this recipe.
  • 4. Now take a toothpick and prick the peeled potato all over. Pass the toothpick right through the potatoes and be careful not to break them while doing this. Repeat with all the potatoes.
  • 5. Now, heat oil in a kadai/pan on medium heat. Once the oil is hot drop the potatoes in the oil carefully, one at a time.
  • 6. Fry the potatoes until they are golden brown in color from both sides. Drain on a paper towel.
  • 7. Once the fried potatoes have cooled down a bit, take a toothpick and prick all the potatoes all over, again.
  • 8. Now in another kadai or pan, heat 2 tablespoons of mustard oil on medium high heat. Once oil is hot, add cumin seeds, bay leaves, cinnamon stick,cloves. Saute for 1 minute.
  • 9. Now add kashmiri red chili powder. and whipped yogurt. Keep stirring until you see a bright red color.
  • 10. Then add the fried potatoes into the pan and mix well so that all potatoes are coated with the spice mix.
  • 11. Add fennel powder, ginger powder, salt. Also add 1.5 to 2 cups of water and stir.
  • 12. Cover the pan and let it simmer for 10 to 15 minutes on medium flame or until the curry becomes thick and little reduces.
  • 13. Serve kashmiri dum aloo hot with rice or roti.
