Aloo Rasedar | Potatoes in a Tomato Ginger Gravy (vegan, gluten-free)

Jump to Recipe

Aloo Rasedar recipe is prepared without garlic and onions making it ideal if you’re observing a fast. This dish is absolutely delicious and pairs well with poori (deep fried bread).

Often times when I’d visit the temple, Aloo Poori (potatoes and deep fried bread) was offered as prasad (a religious vegetarian offering in both Hinduism and Sikhism). I always looked forward to the potato curry which was prepared without garlic and onions. For the longest time, I referred to this Aloo ki Subzi as Mandir wale Aloo or Gurudwara wale Aloo or Poori wali Aloo ki Subzi. There are various names for this dish, however I call it Aloo Rasedar which is prepared in a tomato ginger gravy.

This subzi right here is one of my favorites and is Indian comfort food, especially with poori. The flavor is in the carom seeds and hing which are the two key ingredients in this dish, hence do not omit. It’s the perfect subzi to make when you’re observing a fast, usually around Navratri. Consume this delectable subzi with poori, roti, or naan.

    Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms who show up s Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms who show up selflessly every single day. Also, a happy mothers day to all of you who want to be moms. ❤️  This is the most challenging role of my life, but the journey is totally worth it. Krish has made me a stronger and happier person. He gives new meaning to my life.  And lastly, my kid couldn’t give me one nice picture of us in Hawaii… there’s either someone in the back or he’s making a face or he just wants to get away. He just can’t sit still for a minute… and with that a Happy Mother’s Day to me! 🥰

    Vacationing with a kid has been a completely diffe Vacationing with a kid has been a completely different experience. While it’s nice to spend time as a family, dinners can get tough with a baby. Sanjiv and I enjoyed a romantic evening at House Without A Key in peace because Krish “thankfully” fell asleep (he was behind us I promise… swipe). It was so nice to converse with my better half over live music + cocktails, delicious food, and the BEST coconut cake (last pic). A memorable meal and evening! ❤️ #mylove

    Aloha 🤙! Our first family trip! We made it to H Aloha 🤙! Our first family trip! We made it to Hawaii safe and sound, and Krish was pretty good on the plane. It’s my first time in Hawaii and I’m loving Waikiki… the beach, food, window shopping, and city life. I love being able to walk everywhere. It’s the perfect amount of action and relaxation for me. This is totally my kinda vacation 😎!  Krish has been loving all the people-watching… something he doesn’t do much of back home. He’s been flexible and has pretty much adjusted to our schedule. Thank you 🙏🏼 guys for all the food recommendations (Duke’s Hula Pie) and tips on traveling with a toddler. I can’t thank you all enough. ❤️ #myworld
