Jeera Aloo or Aloo Jeera: No Onion-Garlic

A very commonplace yet immensely easiest, quickest & enormously DELISH this dish is all about without any extravaganza of several ingredients or components other than the key ones that very much reflect in its very name- JEERA ALOO & just that…!!! It can also be prepared with some leftover boiled potatoes in the fridge as I did, this time- The potatoes were the leftovers from my Yday’s one Mutton preparation which’s yet to be uploaded shortly 👍🏻

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

To begin with: Boil the Potatoes, peel nicely & chop them into your desirable sizes or as aforementioned- Set aside for the time being

* Step 2

Heat up a frying pan over the medium flame: Add into it the ghee, followed by the Tempering Spices: Dry Red Chillies, Hing & Cumin Seeds- Sauté for about 30-40 secs time until they turn aromatic- Add into it the boiled potatoes now & continue sautéing

* Step 3

Reduce the flame to the medium now & keep sautéing, add in some salt to taste, turmerics, red chilli powder & sauté until it’s all nicely combined & well incorporated finely to get infused properly

* Step 4

If it sticks to the pan, throw in some splashes of warm water (SOS), to prevent sticking to the pan & burning- Else, water isn’t called for this particular recipe- In goes, the Bhuna Masala Powder now as well as the finely chopped coriander leaves- Give it all a really good mix altogether- Flame goes off

* Step 5

Cover it for another 5-8 mins time before serving- It’s absolutely ready to be served hot now- Enjoy this delicious bowl with your choicest Indian Breads & Dal or even Dal-Chawal 💁‍♀️🤤😋
