Oh my, these are absolutely delicious. I’m no fan of Gujarati food as such, but these potatoes won me over. Besides, they are ridiculously easy to cook. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hi Mallika

The photo of the Gujarati Aloo looks delicious and The recipe is made up of all the spices of the east.

What an inspiration that was from a hidden haven you visited in Oshwal Centre where there is a Jain Temple as well.

I hope on a good day you will visit the temple and will experience a taste of peace and tranquility but there is no recipe for this . You have to experiance this by yourself , do walk round the landscaped gardens and rest on the bench and feel for yourself what a taste !!!!!!

[...] this lovely Gujarati aloo a few days ago - and loved it! Ever since I saw it over at Mallika’s, I wanted to make it! It smelled fantastic! It is incredibly light, and I felt wonderfully [...]

Made this a few days ago – loved it! it smelled fantastic!
this was the first time i cooked with hing, and it was a bit bitter. i either put too much, or i really shouldn’t have added some exta afterwards… i’ve read hing needs to be cooked in oil/ghee.

would you mind if i blogged about this, including your recipe, too? of course, it will be duly acknowledged, with links to your post and all!

mmmmmm I’ve been craving like mad for some potato curry! yes, I am Croatian, moreover Dalmatian, and I haven’t eaten anything spicy until I was 16, but Indian food has got under my skin and into my heart! I simply adore it: the heat, the complexity of flavour, the variety! So much that when I spend a month in Croatia, like now, I crave it! All I want now is a simple and flavoursome potato curry. Like this one. Needless to say this is going straight to my bookmarks!

hey, nice story and a good recipe. I enjoyed reading through both. And yeah, I’ve started eating beef since I came to canada and I do get funny comments from people around me who know I’m not supposed to eat beef as I’m a hindu.

Mallika – aloo turned out great – lovely recipe – hubby loved it and even Esha wanted to try Aloo for the 1st time since she thought the smell was “very disticious” (ofcoursre she meant “delicious”!

Enjoy ur trip to Cannes – and write to me all about it….

PHEW!!! Finally!!!! Past few days my feed reader was not updating your posts and just two days back I was thinking how coem I haven’t heard from you off late…… and there I see your post on food blog desam! I guess my google reader is out for a toss!!

The gujju curry is just perfect! A lot of gujju food will have sugar ……. for the very sweet people that we are and lemon to balance it….. but you have added curd so that should do the job.

Ok, at risk of totally pushing you off the edge: I guess I found it slightly irritating since all the many Gujarati Muslims I know (myself included) have none of these dietry restrictions, and I wouldn’t have thought that we were atypical or unusual or “exceptional” Gujaratis because of that.

Apologies for not being clear and it’s no big deal anyway.
