Dum Aloo Restuarant Style(Baby potatoes cooked in creamy sauce)

January 27, 2012 by Siri




I really love potatoes a lot..and have been trying to cook them in all possible ways..Recently we have been to an Indian restaurant last week,DH and my brother ordered Dum Alu /Aloo Dum gravy which they liked it very much..so I decided to prepare this at home and gave a try..
It came out really well..
For making this dish,baby potatoes are the best choice.Alu Dum is also known as Aloo Dum Pukht, is a favoured Indian Curry recipe that you often get to see on many restaurant menus.


Dum Aloo cooked in rich creamy gravy

Ingredients:

  • Baby potatoes – 1/2 kg
  • Big Onions sliced -2
  • Shajeera(Black Cumin seeds)-1tbsp
  • Garam Masal Whole spices -1 1/2 tbsp
  •  Tomatoes chopped -2
  •  Coriander powder – 2tbsp
  • Red Chilli powder-2 tbsp
  • Salt to taste
  • Oil – 4 tbsp
  • Thick curd – 1tbp (Optional)
Baby potatoes boiled and peeled
How I made:
  • Boil the potatoes in cooker till 1or 2 whistles.Take out the skin and shallow fry them in 1 tbsp of oil and keep them aside.(If you wish you can deep fry them alternatively)
  • Take a pan and heat 1 tbsp of oil,Add the whole spices,black cumin and fry for a minute.
  • Add onion slices and fry till golder brown.
  • Now take the onion mixture into a jar ,add in chopped tomatoes,coriander powder and blend into a smooth paste.
  • Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a pan and add in the onion tomato paste.Fry it till the oil separates from the paste..
  • Add red chilli powder.Add 1-2 tbsp of water if required and add the curd.  Cook it covered for 10 min.
  • Add the potatoes and cook it covered for 15-20 mins on meium or low flame.
  • Garnish it with fresh coriander leaves and a spoon full of melted butter.
  • Serve hot with any flavoured rice or roti or naan.We enjoyed it with home made butter naan.
Shallow fried in Oil





This dish is also called Kashmiri Dum Aloo.Ths baby potatoes soaked in the creamy gravy will just melt in your mouth..Lovely dish all I can say..

    Tried it. Turned out awesome…. But I was bit confused with Garam masala whole spices. I didn’t knew what to add exactly. So I added masala powder.

    By the way can you add the process to make Garam masala powder. I have searched the internet but i found it specific to the curry. But I need it commonly for all the recipes.

    Once again thanks for the recipe… πŸ™‚

    Hi siri,Thanks for your comments.
    Whole Spices means cloves, cinnamon,cardamom green and black,bay leaf,etc.(Lavangalu,chekka,yalukalu,javitri etc)You canalso use ready made garam masala powder..but the taste that comes from freshly ground whole spices is different and unique..:)

    Will surely add the recipe you have asked for soon:)Stay tuned πŸ™‚
