    Next in the gravies with Potatoes, I have a very new dish that inspired me to complete this series with Indian Gravies. I read this when Alka of Culinaryxpress shared it for Cooking from the Cookbook group. The gravy looked so interesting and I was immediately pushed to have this included in this list.

    I made this for our Sunday Lunch. Hubby dear gave a miss and it was only the other elders at home who had this. It was so amazingly delicious that I plan to make it again. Of course, we can make it without the aloo as well. Aloo gives a nice distraction. However, I feel the gravy on its own tastes out of the world.

    Karuveppilai Thogayal is yet another way to enjoy the goodness of Curry Leaves.

    It was a day without my P&S, so I had to depend on my mobile for these SBS pictures, then I also ended up forgetting my DSLR. So I had to depend on iPhone and Samsung. I almost feel the pictures came out pretty decent. I slightly changed a couple of things, and enjoyed it so much!




    Curry Patta Aloo
     
    For Curry Patta Masala:
     
    Fresh Curry Leaves - 2 handfuls or 1 cup tightly packed
    Coriander Powder - 1 tsp
    Cumin Powder 1/2 tsp
    Chilli Powder - 1 tsp
    Turmeric Powder a pinch
    Salt to taste
     
    For the Gravy:
     
    Boiled Baby Potatoes - 250 gms
    Onion finely chopped - 1 cup / 2 medium ones
    Tomatoes finely chopped 2 nos
    Grated garlic 2 tsp
    Grated ginger 1 tsp
    Chopped green chili 2 to 3
    Oil 1 tsp
    Butter - 1 tbsp
     
    How to Make the Gravy
     
    I have preserved curry leaves as a powder when I have an excess on hand. I mostly use MW for the process
     
    Wash and pressure cook the baby potatoes. When it cools down, peel the potatoes and keep it aside.
     
    Wash and dry the curry leaves and pat dry.
     
    MW the curry leaves for 3 mins. Allow to cool down. Crush with your hands. Take the powder in a mixer along with the spice powders and pulse it a couple of times to get a powder. Keep it aside.
     
    Heat a nonstick pan with oil, add grated garlic, ginger, finely chopped green chilies and saute well. Then add onions, saute till it changes colour. Add the powder to the pan, mix well. Then add finely chopped tomatoes.
     
    Cook well and add water and bring to a boil. When the gravy starts cooking, add the boiled potatoes and simmer till the gravy thickens.
     
    Finally, add the butter to the pan and cook for a few seconds and switch off.
     
    Serve with rice

      Oh wow ! The curry patta aaloo sound really fantastic . The curry patta in south has a strong aroma and is anyday better than any orher regions and i am trying to absorb all the flavors of these aaloos . I'm sure it will go excellent with parathas and pooris too .

      I stopped doing SBS pictures long ago but whenever I do, I use my phone. It is so convenient. At times, I find mobile camera gives pretty decent pictures and the first one is my favorite. I like the styling as well.

      Gravy looks very nice.
