vrat ke aloo or vrat walee aloo

vrat wale aloo or vrat ke aloo are made during fasting/vrat or during navratri. sans onion-garlic, the aloo or potato sabzi is simple and delicious.

and you don't need to make this potato curry recipe during this any fasting occasion. you can make this sabzi and serve with pooris or chappatis any time. there are many variations of vrat ke aloo.

sharing the way i make this aloo sabzi at home. the boiled potatoes are crumbled and added to sauted tomatoes-spice mixture. simmered for some minutes and then served hot with a garnish of coriander leaves. this aloo recipe is light and not heavily spiced. just to add a bit of spice and heat, green chilies are used, which you can easily skip.

usually the fasting recipes are easier to make and does not demand much preparation. you can make many fasting or vrat recipes using aloo like dahi aloo, aloo chaat, aloo matar, jeera aloo and so on.

these vrat wale aloo goes well with puri or chappati made from kuttu ka atta (buckwheat flour) or singhare ka atta (water chestnut flour). i served them with singhare ke atta ki pooris (pooris made from water chestnut flour) and kala chana sundal.
