Recipes with potato

Potatoes are the ingredient most kitchens already have, so this page lists every dish in our library that needs potato as a main ingredient: dry aloo sabzi, gravy curries with mutton or minced meat, stuffed parathas, fritters and a few street snacks.

Pick by cooking time on each card. Some dishes take 20 minutes in a pan, others such as dum aloo or aloo gosht want a slow simmer, and every page has numbered steps with timers.

Storage and swaps: keep potatoes in a cool, dark, dry spot rather than the fridge, and away from onions. Waxy potatoes hold their shape in curries, floury ones mash and fry better. If a recipe wants boiled potato, cooking them a few hours ahead and chilling makes them easier to cube.

This collection has 38 dishes, including Aloo Paratha, Aloo Gosht, Aloo Posto. A typical recipe takes about 45 minutes, and each one comes with step-by-step instructions and cooking timers.
