    Kashmiri Dum Aloo

    Kashmiri dum aloo is a delicious north Indian cuisine, prepared with curd and tomatoes.

    The red chilli powder or degi mirch gives the fabulous red color. If you can't tolerate the heat then adjust the quantity of chilli paste as per your taste. Onion and garlic are not used authentic kashmiri dum aloo. This is a no onion no garlic recipe.

    If you are preparing in regular North Indian Style Aloo, then you can add onion paste or ready to use curry paste for quick cooking

    Read my restaurant style dum aloo recipe and aloo tomato recipe here. Also read my baby potatoes recipes like bombay potatoes and baby potato dum biryani.

    kashmiri Dum Aloo

    Well here in dum aloo recipes, only the name reflects "dum" but the dish is not cooked in dum cooking method.

    In this preparation I have used tomato puree and whisked curd to prepare the gravy. To get more rich recipe use ghee or clarified butter. Some people add cashew paste.

    How ever this is a basic dish and doesn't require more ingredients.  It's a no-onion no-garlic dish which is a perfect dish for fasting days. (just remove saunf or fennel powder and use rock salt if you are making this for fasting days).

    In Kashmiri recipes fennel seeds plays an important role. It gives a distinct taste to the gravy in Kashmiri Dum Aloo. Similar way I have another recipe Kashmiri Dahi Baingan which I will share here soon.

    This is one easy to cook dish and takes less than 15 minutes to prepare if you have boiled potatoes. Though it looks trendy when we use baby potatoes, you can also make the curry with regular potatoes also.
