Are you the person who craves for something spicy? Do you love potatoes in any form? If you are answering at least one of the above as 'Yes', Aloo Muttar is 'the one' for you. Aloo is Potato and Muttar is Peas in Hindi,an Indian Language. This is a gravy made with potatoes,peas and some Indian spices to make you go crazy! It has such a divine taste to it.
Whenever you visit any Indian restaurant, you can find Aloo Muttar listed along with Paneer Tikka Masala, Gobi Manchurian in the Side dish category, a hundred percent. Indians love these side dishes and feel even proud in making them available to others. Here I am taking the pride of sharing the famous recipe so that you can prepare this at home and surprise your family with a different cuisine/Recipe.
The preparation time for this recipe is around 20 mts and I assure you that you will never stop eating this.
