Aloo chokha is one of the side dishes that is served with Litti chokha. I am sharing the accompaniments or sides served with litti and have already shared the recipe of Baingan chokha. This Aloo Chokha might appear like an aloo bharta at first look, but it definitely is not your usual bharta. The potatoes in this recipe are not charred. But are boiled or steamed. One of the ingredient that is the highlight of this recipe is mustard oil, which gives the aloo ka chokha a slightly pungent flavor. So, I would suggest not skipping it, if you want to keep the essence intact. The recipe is again very easy to prepare. It can be quickly made by someone who’s new to the kitchen or even a bachelor. Boil or steam the potatoes, peel, mash, mix with the other ingredients and it is ready to serve. You can serve aloo chokha with litti chokha or can even serve it as a side dish with any North Indian meal. You can easily scale this recipe as per your needs.
