Aloo Anda Gravy - Restaurant Style

Step 1: Prepare Ingredients

Gather all ingredients. Peel and cube the potatoes. Slice the tomatoes and onions. Keep the boiled eggs ready.

Step 2: Fry Potatoes and Eggs

Heat oil in a cooking pot. Add the peeled and cubed potatoes to the hot oil. After a few moments, add the boiled eggs to the oil with the potatoes. Fry them together until they are lightly golden brown and the potatoes are partially cooked.

Step 3: Remove Fried Items

Once the potatoes and eggs are fried to your liking, remove them from the oil and set them aside in a separate bowl.

Step 4: Sauté Onions

In the same oil, add the sliced onions. Fry them until they turn golden brown and translucent.

Step 5: Add Ginger-Garlic Paste

Add the ginger-garlic paste to the frying onions. Sauté for a minute or two until the raw smell of the paste disappears.

Step 6: Add Tomatoes and Spices

Add the sliced tomatoes, green chilies, and curry leaves to the pot. Then, add red chili powder, salt, and turmeric powder. Also, add some chopped coriander leaves.

Step 7: Cook the Masala

Mix all the added ingredients thoroughly. Cook the masala on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes and onions are completely mashed and the oil starts to separate from the mixture. This indicates the masala is well-cooked.

Step 8: Combine with Potatoes and Eggs

Add the previously fried potatoes and eggs back into the cooked masala. Gently mix them to ensure they are well coated with the gravy.

Step 9: Simmer the Gravy

If you prefer a thinner gravy, you can add a little water at this stage. Cover the pot and let the Aloo Anda Gravy simmer on low heat for about 5-7 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and ensures the potatoes are fully cooked.

Step 10: Garnish and Serve

Once the gravy has simmered and reached your desired consistency, garnish generously with fresh chopped coriander leaves. Serve hot with roti, naan, or rice.
