Aloo Bhuna Masala

A rich and flavourful Satvik curry made with roasted potatoes and capsicum, finished in a creamy spiced gravy.

Ingredients

For the Curd Masala Mixture

• ½ cup thick curd, whisked
• 1½ tbsp Saankrit Aloo Bhuna Masala
• 1 tsp kasuri methi
• ½ cup water

For the Gravy

• 2 tbsp ghee
• 1 cup prepared base gravy
• ½ tsp red chilli powder
• ¼ tsp turmeric powder
• 1 tsp dhania powder
• Salt to taste

For the Roasted Vegetables

• 2 medium potatoes, boiled and cut into cubes
• 1 medium capsicum, cut into cubes
• 1 tbsp butter
• 2 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped

Method

1. Prepare the curd mixture:
   In a bowl, whisk the curd until smooth. Add Saankrit Aloo Bhuna Masala, kasuri methi and water. Mix well and keep aside.
2. Prepare the gravy:
   Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan. Add the prepared base gravy, red chilli powder, turmeric powder and dhania powder. Mix well and bring it to a gentle boil.
3. Add the curd mixture:
   Reduce the heat to low. Gradually add the prepared curd mixture while stirring continuously. Keep stirring to prevent the curd from splitting.
4. Roast the vegetables:
   Meanwhile, heat butter on a tawa. Add the boiled potato cubes and capsicum. Roast until they develop a light golden colour and the capsicum is slightly charred.
5. Combine:
   Add the roasted potatoes and capsicum to the gravy. Mix gently and add fresh coriander.
6. Simmer:
   Let the curry simmer on low heat until the gravy thickens and coats the potatoes beautifully.
7. Serve:
   Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot with roti, naan, rice or as part of a festive thali.
