Vrat Wale Aloo Vrat Ke Aloo Aloo Recipe For Fasting Or Vrat

And you don’t need to make this potato curry recipe on any fasting occasion. You can make this sabzi and serve with pooris or chappatis any time. There are many variations of vrat ke aloo. Sharing the way I make this Vrat wale aloo at home. The boiled potatoes are crumbled and added to sauteed tomatoes-spice mixture. Simmered for some minutes and then served hot with a garnish of coriander leaves. This dish is light and not heavily spiced. Just to add a bit of spice and heat, green chilies are used, which you can easily skip. Usually the fasting recipes are easier to make and do not demand much preparation. These vrat wale aloo goes well with Kuttu ki poori or Kuttu roti or Rajgire ki poori or Rajgira paratha. I served them with Singhare ke atta ki poori (pooris made from water chestnut flour) and Kala chana sundal (black chickpea sundal).

How to make vrat wale aloo recipe:

1. First rinse 3 medium-sized potatoes very well in fresh water. Then add the potatoes with 3 cups water in the stovetop pressure cooker.
2. Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon of sendha namak or rock salt.
3. Boil the potatoes in the pressure cooker for 4 to 5 whistles or till the potatoes cook and soften.
4. When they become warm, then peel the potatoes and keep them aside.
5. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan. Instead of oil you can use ghee also.
6. Crackle ½ teaspoon of ajwain (carom seeds) first.
7. Now add 1 to 2 chopped green chilies. If you prefer then you can skip adding green chilies.
8. Saute for half a minute.
9. Add 1 cup of chopped tomatoes (3 medium-sized tomatoes). Stir and mix very well. Begin to saute them on low heat.
10. Continue to stir in between when cooking the tomatoes a couple of times. Saute till the oil starts to leave the sides of the mixture.
11. Now directly crumble the 3 boiled potatoes in the tomato mixture.
12. Stir and mix very well.
13. Now add 2 cups of water.
14. Stir and mix again.
15. Add sendha namak or rock salt as required.
16. Simmer on a low heat till the gravy thickens a bit. Do stir occasionally. When the vrat wale aloo is done then you will see some oil specks on the top. You can thicken the gravy less or more as per your requirements.
17. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve vrat wale aloo hot or warm. The gravy will thicken more as it cools down.
18. These vrat wale aloo goes well with Kuttu ki poori or Kuttu roti or Rajgire ki poori or Rajgira paratha or Singhare ki poori. This recipe can be easily scaled to make a big or small batch. If you are looking for more Fasting recipes then do check:
