Aloo ka cheela recipe | Vegan potatoes hash recipe with step wise pictorial and video method.

“ALOO” is Potato in English and “CHEELA” means Pancake.

So Aloo ka cheela is called by the name potatoes pancake or hashbrown also. Hashbrown is also cooked in similar way, except it contains eggs and onion too.

This Vegan and Glutenfree Aloo ka cheela is an Indian version carrying no onion, no eggs which gets ready in no time with one prime ingredient named potato and few spices.

This recipe is being cooked in our family since ages and is being loved by one and all. It happens in every home that sometimes you don’t feel like cooking at length for various reasons, either being not in a mood to cook or there’s nothing in the refrigerator to cook. So in that situation, such kind of recipes come to rescue.

Though aloo ka cheela is commonly treated as a snack or breakfast recipe, but we love to eat it as a sabzi with fulka. Many a times in the morning, when we aren’t sure about what to cook for the tiffin, aloo ka cheela is a quick reply.

Although there’s no hard and fast rule as to what to add and what not but you can also add red onion, spring onion, coriander and some finely chopped veggies like carrots, beans, peas, corns or anything you like. However some add egg too.

STEP WISE PICTORIAL METHOD OF ALOO KA CHEELA RECIPE

Wash the potatoes very well. As we are using potatoes with skin, so they need to be washed extremely well by rubbing all around so that there remains no dust or sand stick to them.

Put the potatoes in a Mortar. Alternatively you can grate the potatoes.

Crush the potatoes with pestle. But do not make a paste, it should remain in chunks.

Then add ginger and green chilies.

Crush them too.

Thereafter add all the other ingredients i.e. carom seeds, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala, dry mango powder and salt.

Give a crush to them as well.

Mix everything so well.

Take a non stick pan/tawa and spread some oil on it.

Put the potato mixture and spread all over the pan.

Also line the edges so that cheela remains round in shape.

Put a lid and let it cook underneath on low heat until it is done from one side It may take 5 to 7 minutes.

Remove the lid and drop some oil on the top of chilla.

Very carefully, turn the down side up and cook from other side too.

When the potato mixture turns brown from both the sides, take it out and also cook the second one.

Aloo ka cheela, which is also called kute hue aloo, is ready. Enjoy with hot roti.
