About the recipe

In this recipe, aloo and palak are added to the onion gravy and then cooked together until they turn soft and tender.

Pressure cooking too can be done and just give one single whistle to make it cook perfectly if making using pressure cooking style...

I have shared a very easy vegetable curry along with a video procedure made with aloo and spinach and tastes best when served with roti or rice.

I have shown to make the palak/spinach and potato curry in a wok, however the same can be made in a pressure cooker without adding any water as the palak releases its own water and the gravy is cooked in that water.

Aloo is one such vegetable which is liked by kids and young. Aloo is a vegetable that can be tried into various recipes and can be relished with roti and rice.

There are endless dishes that can be tried with aloo.

Here I have used two veggies, one is palak and the other is aloo and combining both vegetables gives us a delicious gravy.

Palak is a healthy vegetable and it can also be experimented into many varieties.

  • 1 tablespoon coriander leaves finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Firstly, in a wok, add oil and heat it.
  • Add finely chopped onions and saute for few seconds.
  • Add slit green chillies, mix and saute until onions turn soft.
  • Add salt, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, ginger garlic paste, mix and saute well.

Notes

  • Wash the spinach leaves and aloo pieces well before adding to the curry.
  • Aloo palak can also be pressure cooked.
  • After adding coriander leaves in step 9, just pressure cooking the aloo palak curry for 2 whistles gives us a fine curry.
  • If aloo palak is not made in pressure cooker, then cut the potatoes into small pieces as they can be cooked faster and can be tenderized quickly.
  •  In this recipe, I have not added any water as the palak and onion release their own water and the gravy can be cooked in that water.
