No matter how dear Masaledaar heavy food is to us, there are times we would all want something light and easy on the stomach.
What better ingredient for this purpose other than the all-time favourite Aloo?
Not only does it have a great flavour, but it can also be used to prepare quick dishes like Aloo Matar ki Rasedar Sabzi and Shahi Aloo Pyaz.
I prepare this Hing Jeera Aloo recipe quite often and my family just loves it.
They prefer it with poori, paratha or Masala Jowar Roti. It can also be had with a bowl full of plain rice for a filling dinner.
Jeera, Hing, Methi, Coriander and other flavours of this dish can set your digestion right in no time.
You can also try the Aloo Mutter Gobi the next time you feel like going for a simple dinner. Here is how to make Hing Jeera Aloo.
