Carrot Kheer is a traditional, delicious, and sweet dish. Gajrela with Milk is a carrot-based sweet dessert pudding from the Indian subcontinentThis is also considered a gift for winter: gajar halwa and gajrela. This recipe is quite easy and simpler than gajar halwa. Gajrela is cooked coarsely crushed rice, milk, and sugar, along with some dry fruits like almonds and pistachios.o

Quite different from Gajar halwa, you can also find gajar halwa on my blog. Personally, I much more like gajar halwa than gajrela, though gajar halwa takes much more time and effort, and is more costly than gajrela. This has always been my favourite,orite and gajrela is the favourite of my elder brother; mainly a relish recipe that most people love to eat.

If your next visit is in winter, inter do not forget to offer Gajrela with Milk to your guests as Dessert. So let’s begin.

Tips to Make Delicious Lauki Halwa

First, boil the bottle gourd in milk to infuse a creamy flavor into the halwa and eliminate any raw taste or smell. Next, cook it in pure ghee while adding sugar, khoya, and dry fruits. This step enhances the flavor of the halwa and reduces cooking time. 

Be sure to avoid using bottle gourds that are too sour or bitter; a slight tang is acceptable, but consuming bitter lauki can be dangerous. Always wash, peel, and taste the bottle gourd before using it. Wash the bottle gourd.

Then grate it. Put the grated lauki into water; it will prevent turns to blackish.

Aloo Kabab Recipe | Aloo Cutlets | Tasty Potato Cutlets with Step-by-Step Photos and Video

Aloo kabab, commonly known as aloo cutlets, is a beloved and flavorful snack that can be enjoyed any time of day. Whether you're looking for a satisfying evening snack, a delightful breakfast, or a savory side dish to complement your lunch or dinner,

These cutlets are versatile and mouth-watering. They also make a fantastic option for kids’ tiffin boxes, ensuring the little ones get a tasty treat.

I’ve explored various delicious variations of my cherished aloo kabab recipe in previous posts, but today, I’m thrilled to share an exciting new version      


For a detailed recipe, watch my video where I explain the steps one by one.

My Latest Aloo Kabab Recipe Video:



An easy and quick recipe for creating these scrumptious cutlets! In this particular iteration of aloo kabab, I’ve kept the ingredients simple, focusing on a few essential seasoning herbs and breadcrumbs that perfectly enhance the flavor without overwhelming the palate. Get ready for my instant aloo kabab recipe!

Can We Store Aloo Kabab for Later Use? 

Absolutely! However, it’s essential to understand how to store them properly. Potatoes are rich in starch, which allows them to retain moisture when frozen. This property means that upon defrosting at room temperature, they can release excess moisture, leading to sogginess.

This can compromise the integrity and texture of the aloo kababs, making them less crispy when fried. For best results, it’s recommended to consume them fresh or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for short-term use.

Tips for Perfect Aloo Cutlets:

Choosing the Right Potatoes:

Red potatoes are the ideal choice for making kababs because they have a mild flavor. This subtle taste allows the seasonings and spices to shine through, making them a great base for delicious aloo kababs. If you follow this tip, you'll ensure your cutlets are well-balanced and flavorful!

Boiling Potatoes:

For the best texture, slightly hard-boil the potatoes. This technique ensures that the potatoes are firm enough to hold their shape while being easy to mash.

Binding Agents:

To enhance the flavor and texture of aloo cutlets, consider adding cottage cheese or cheddar cheese as a binding agent. This addition enriches the taste and appeals to kids' palates. However, in this recipe, I've opted for straightforward breadcrumbs to keep it simple.

Avoid Cornstarch:

It's crucial to refrain from adding cornstarch in this recipe, as it can lead to a different texture. Remember, these are kababs, not aloo tikki.

Shallow Frying Technique:

Using a non-stick pan for shallow-frying your aloo kabab is highly recommended. Non-stick pans require less oil compared to traditional frying methods, prohibiting the kababs from sticking, which ensures a beautiful golden crust without excess oiliness.

Egg Coating Option:

I prefer to fry the potato kababs without an egg coatingHowever, if you enjoy a more decadent texture, you can opt to dip them in beaten egg before frying for an extra crispy exterior. 

Follow this enhanced guide, and you’ll be well on your way to creating irresistible aloo kababs that are sure to delight family and friends alike!

How to Make Aloo Kabab?

1st step:

Begin by preparing a pot with 1 liter of water and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Place it on the stove over high heat and bring the water to a rolling boil. Once the water is boiling, carefully add the potatoes.

You can choose to leave the skins on or peel them beforehand, depending on your preference. Boil the potatoes for approximately 15 minutes, adjusting the time based on the type and size of the potatoes you are using.

To check if the potatoes are cooked, insert a fork into one of them to see if it is tender. If the fork goes in easily, they are ready. Turn off the flame, carefully remove the potatoes from the boiling water, and allow them to cool completely

If you boil unpeeled potatoes, once cool, peel the skins off. Next, finely chop fresh coriander leaves and green chilies to add flavor.

2nd step:

In a large mixing bowl, mash or grate the cooled potatoes until they are smooth and lump-free. Add a mix of seasonings to the mashed potatoes: a pinch of salt, 1-2 teaspoons of chaat masala powder, a sprinkle of black pepper powder, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, ½ teaspoon of mustard powder, and a pinch of chili flakes to taste. 

                  

aloo kabab

Gently combine the potato mixture with the spices until well incorporated, ensuring even distribution of flavors. To add texture, fold in approximately ½ cup of breadcrumbs along with the chopped coriander and green chilies.

Mix well until a cohesive dough forms. At this stage, taste the mixture and adjust the spices as desired, adding more for extra heat if you prefer.

3rd step:

Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them according to your preference: round, oval, or square. You can use a mold for precise shapes or simply use your hands for a more rustic look. Aim for a thickness of about ½ inch for even cooking.

4th Step:

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, crack one egg and add a pinch of salt and freshly crushed black pepper (about ¼ teaspoon). If you don’t have a pepper grinder,

You can use a mortar and pestle to crush the peppercorns for the freshest flavor.

 5th Step:

In a frying pan, drizzle a generous amount of cooking oil (about 3-4 tablespoons) and heat it over medium heat until hot. Dip each aloo cutlet into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off before gently placing the kababs into the hot oil.

Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, cooking each aloo kabab until they are crispy and golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side

Once cooked, transfer the kababs onto a kitchen towel to absorb any excess oil.
