Potato Curry |Cut Aloo Kari Recipe | Home Style Potato Fry | Gluten Free and Vegan Recipe

Hi Supermoms,

Potato is my family's most favourite vegetable. 

From potato masala for dosai , potato sagu for poori to bonda , potato wedges to sandwich filling, there is so much that can be made using potatoes. If you are a potato fan, then you can feel how the taste of each dish you cook automatically elevates when you add potatoes. 

Potatoes are always on the top of my vegetable shopping list . Even if I do not have any other vegetables in stock except potatoes, I feel that I can still cook a very tasty meal . Potato brings back so many memories . 

Simple potato stir fry with curd rice or rasam rice  used to be my favourite school lunch. Finely chopped , soft cooked and lightly roasted potatoes with ghee chapatis always bring back fond memories of numerous train travels. 

Another potato dish that wins hearts at home is this recipe that I am going to share with you all today. My children call it 'Cut aloo kari' for the simple reason that there are so many different variations of potato sabzi I make and with this name, I can instantly recognise the type of potato they need. Potatoes are chopped into small cubes along with the skin and pan roasted. 

You can get the authentic taste of this Cut Aloo Curry only when you cook in an iron kadai/wok. Sesame oil compliments this dish . You can even use a good sambar masala to spice up the potatoes.
