HOW THIS RECIPE IS DIFFERENT?
We haven’t played any supernatural trick to make these potatoes and this is very basic and common recipe, which might be routine to many.
But the only difference is that we have separately cooked curd.
Generally dahi wale aloo are cooked in a way that after adding spices, first curd is added and when it gets cooked, potatoes are added. And we too used to make these potatoes like that only.
Once we forgot to add curd and mistakenly potatoes were added first. There was no option to take a back step so we added curd after potatoes.
