Aloo Matar Curry || Aloo Matar Sabzi  || How to make aloo Matar curry With step-by-step photos.

Aloo Matar sabzi is a Punjabi dish from the Indian subcontinent, which is made from potatoes (Aloo) and peas (Matar) in a spiced tomato-based sauce. This is an easy, tasty, spiced vegetarian dish.

There are many versions of making aloo matar sabzi. I prepared this delicious recipe with my style addition of fresh soya leaves to give it to aromatic and flavoured taste, soya leaves are an aromatic veggie that is used to bring a taste to the meal.

This ALOO MATAR is a simple veg curry made of potatoes and fresh/frozen peas in a spicy onion tomato gravy. Usually, this sabzi is made during winter due to seasonal vegetables like soya, peas or new potatoes, but there are no restrictions that couldn’t be made in summer; thus, you should have good quality canned peas/frozen peas and potatoes.

                                                 

                    

The speciality of this sabzi is cooked in mustard oil, and fresh soya leaves are added to give an earthly flavour. If you don’t have soya available, then do not worry can use fresh coriander leaves. But I will never recommend skipping mustard oil, as I mentioned above speciality of this sabzi. So, try to cook in this oil. If you don’t like the taste of mustard oil, then it can be replaced using olive oil.

Chunks of aloo and matar are cooked in a simple but packed flavour spice base. Great to eat along with Garma Garm roti or along with some hot dal-chawal.          

This is one very simple beginner recipe that isn’t hard at There are very few pea dishes that are usually made with seasonal peas like MATAR MASALA, MATAR PULAO.

Frozen peas are available throughout the year, so easily can be easily made this aloo matar ki sabzi/bhujia. Though my all matar sabzi recipe doesn’t contain lots of ingredients or any fancy ingredients just uses basic spices and oil.

This recipe will give you a delicious, moderately spicy yet flavorful dish that is kid’s kid-friendly too. This aloo matar goes well with chapati, paratha and zeera rice. This aloo matar sabzi is exactly what you need to make even the simplest of meals the most delicious ones.

Recipe Notes:

Potatoes: To make this sabzi, use fresh potatoes instead of stored aloo in your vegetable box, since this sabzi contains only fresh ingredients.       

Peas: can be used fresh/frozen peas in this recipe, but keep in mind that peas shouldn’t be stale; otherwise, ur sabzi taste won’t be good 

Mustard oil: Traditionally, this aloo matar sabzi is cooked in mustard oil, but if you don’t like the taste of the oil so here you can use olive/corn oil to maintain the taste of this sabzi

Spices: very few spices are added in aloo matar curry, but if you like more spicier so can adjust the spice level as per your taste

Veggies: I just used fresh potatoes, tomatoes and frozen peas. When you go to buy veggies, carefully choose the tasteless potato. It should not be sweet, otherwise your curry taste becomes bad.

Hyderabadi Bagara Baingan Recipe

                               

Hyderabadi Bagara Baingan | Khatte Baingan || How to make bagara baingan with step-by-step photos and video

Hyderabadi Bagara Baingan is a popular Hyderabadi dish. It is made with small eggplants that are cooked in rich masala curry. Hyderabadi baingan is a vegetarian dish as well as a side for Biryani, a pulao of Hyderabadi Indian cuisine.
Brinjal or eggplant foam is the main ingredient of this bagara baingan curry recipe, which uses the unique taste of the vegetable, blending it with spices to create a wonderful, versatile, and satisfying dish.

Bagara Baingan is cooked from fresh and small white eggplant is the best to make this curry, but if it isn’t available in your area easily, then you can make it from purple eggplants, eggplants are also known as Brinjal. In Pakistan, most people aren’t familiar with eggplant.

                             

My latest Video Bagara Baingan:

Brinjal is available in 3 colors: green, purple, and white. White and purple come in the winter season; the rest of the year, purple brinjal/eggplants are available in the market. So I am also using small purple eggplants for making bagara baingan.  

The main ingredients are peanuts, coconut powder, white sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and tamarind pulp. These ingredients make them tasty, nutty, and delicious. Served as a side dish in Hyderabadi cuisine along with Biryani or with rice, Hyderabadi Baingan turns tasty because of the usage of peanuts, coconut, coriander powder, garam masala, cumin seeds, curry leaves, and tamarind.

Baingan Bharta Recipe

Baingan Bharta |Eggplant Bharta || Baingan Ka Dahi Wala Bharta with step-by-step photos and video

Baingan bharta is an easy, simple, delicious, and delightful side dish. It combines roasted eggplant, yogurt, mustard oil, chopped onions, coriander, and green chilies, along with basic seasonings. 

The eggplant is roasted on a skillet or grill over low to medium heat, either on charcoal or a stove, and it can also be roasted directly over an open flame, which adds a smoky flavor to the dish.

The term "bharta" (pronounced BHURR-that) refers to dishes where the ingredients are roughly mashed. This dish is a beloved part of the national cuisine throughout all nation-states of the Indian subcontinent, including Pakistan.

                                                  

My latest video Baingan Bharta:

Baingan bharta is usually served with dal chawal, and even Rotis. Smokey roasted eggplant is mashed and then spiced with it. 

This baingan bharta is a very popular side dish and one of my personal favorites too. In my family prepare bharta in winter with seasonal eggplant because this baingan is seedless and Bhata is the best choice.
