WhatsApp challenge recipe #31: Dum Aloo

Collating a bunch of recipes received from family and friends during a WhatsApp forward challenge. Haven't tried this one yet.

Boil potatoes. Then shallow fry them with turmeric & salt in mustard oil. Now in kadhai heat mustard oil, add 1 tsp sugar & caramelise it till it turns brown in colour then add bay leaves, 2 dry red chillies, 2 cardamom & cinnamon stick. Then add 1 big tomato+ green chilli paste & fry it well. Then add ginger garlic paste & fry it well. Then add turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder & red chilli powder & fry well. Then add salt. Once it leaves oil, then mix potatoes & then add water. Cover & wait for 5 mins. Then add hot ghee+asafoetida in a small kadhai & add it. Mix well. Dum aloo is ready.
