Almost 5 years back I visited my aunt's place in Faridabad. I was there for 3 days and she used to make special dishes three times a day! Their family is vegetarian so all meal were vegetable and lentils based. One evening it was raining and we couldn't buy any vegetables so she made this recipe with potatoes, tomatoes and onion. She made it very simply and it was ready in minutes. Also, it tasted amazing with pyaz kachori she made along with this. Here, I am sharing her recipe of Aloo Jhol. Pyaz kachori recipe will share soon.. try this recipe and share your views.. Bon appetite!
