Super easy preparation of Dum Aloo, requiring almost no prep, has 3 main ingredients
Potatoes
Curd
Red chillies
Ingredients
Mustard oil (to shallow fry, if you have an air fryer feel free to use that)
8-9 Potatoes- par boiled or 20-25 baby potatoes
Whole spices (I used cinnamon, black pepper and cardamom)
Heeng (1 pinch) – red chilli powder ( 1 tablespoon mixed with water to make a paste)
Curd (1 cup whisked to a smooth consistency)
Fennel powder (1 teaspoon) – salt to taste

- Carefully add your red chilli paste
- Stir in and add your fennel powder
- Add your yogurt (Tip- bring yogurt to room temp before adding to avoid splitting)
