Dahi Wale Aloo is a very popular curry from Northern India that tastes absolute delish with paranthas, puris and rice. In Banaras, it is also popularly known as 'Aloo Ka Rasa'.

The recipe is very old and this is not the kind of thing that you would usually get in a restaurant like Matar Paneer Curry. These are typical Home Cooked Recipes that win hearts with their simplicity and great taste.

Boiled potatoes simmered in a curd based gravy and seasoned with basic spices…is a true delight for any Potato lover. Natural tang of curd when mingles with assorted spices, tastes very distinct and ones you make this curry at home, you would get to know why we are fan of this very simple dish. Besides, if you have some boiled potatoes ready in hand, then this curry comes together in no time and you can prepare it for a quick lunch-dinner or even pack for lunch box too. I would also like to mention that this curry tastes good both hot & cold. So if sometimes you are in a hurry and dont have time even to re-heat your food, you can relish this as it is, and you would actually enjoy your food.

Believe me, this recipe is a real example that you do need exotic ingredients for a soul satisfying meal. Sometimes Simplicity works best!
