Aloo ka Bharta is a popular recipe made with mashed potatoes. Besides being super easy to make, this vegetarian side dish is really delicious and comforting (potatoes, after all!)

There are all sorts of aloo bharta versions. in all the versions, there are slight differences in terms of how the potatoes are cooked, kind of oil used as well as spice flavourings, however, overall all these versions are quite similar.

Unlike the western style mashed potatoes, aloo bharta aren't creamy or melt in the mouth. Potatoes are gently mashed with hands and its totally okay if chunks remain).

These mashed potatoes are lightly spiced, generally flavoured. They are generally not made creamy with milk or butter or served with gravy. They are just spiced mashed potatoes. I mean mashed potatoes, in any form are addictive
