Instructions
 

Step 1: Prep For Aloo Suva

  • Remove the dill leaves, pick leaves and tender stems, and discard the thick, woody stems. Transfer the leaves to a colander, and rinse them well. Set the colander aside and allow the water to drain
  • Roughly chop the dill leaves and set them aside.
  • Peel and wash the potatoes. Chop the potatoes into 1-inch pieces and place them in a bowl of water, to prevent any discoloration of potatoes.
    Note: For faster cooking, chop the potatoes into small cubes or wedges.

Step 2: Make Aloo Suva

  • Heat oil in a Kadai or pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and a pinch of asafetida.
  • Once the seeds start to crackle, add garlic, and sauté for 30 seconds.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high, add potatoes, turmeric, and salt to taste, and mix well. Sauté on high heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook the potatoes for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the edges are crisp and the potatoes are fork tender.
  • Add the fresh dill leaves, green chili, ginger, and dry spices – coriander powder, red chili powder, amchur powder, and salt to taste and mix well. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes or until the dill leaves are wilted and cooked.
    Note: The dill leaves wilt and shrinks in size as they get cooked. Add less salt initially. Once the dish is completely cooked, then add more salt as needed.
  • This aloo Suva recipe is a dry dish. Serve this aloo Suva sabzi with roti, naan, or paratha or as a side dish with Tidali Dal (Three Lentils), Makhani Moong Dal (Green gram without husk), or green moong dal
