URULAIKIZHANGU (ALOO) PACHCHADI

Aloo Pachchadi

 

This pachchadi goes well with sambhar/kuzhambu/rasam rice and those who love aloo can never say no to this one.  This pachchadi can be made with a very few ingredients in a jiffy.

INGREDENTS
Potato (steamed) 1 medium
Curd 1 1/2 cup
Fresh Coriander Leaves Fist full
Coconut (scrapped) 2 tbsp
Ginger 1/2”
Cumin Seeds 1/2 tsp
Urad Dal 1/2 tsp
Mustard Seeds 1/2 tsp
Asafoetida A generous pinch
Oil 1/2 tsp
Salt To taste

 

METHOD

  • Peel and mash the steamed potato with hands. 
  • Add curd and salt to the mashed potato and keep it aside.
  • Grind together coriander leaves, coconut, ginger and cumin seeds in to a fine puree.  Use water if required.
  • Add the ground puree to the potato-curd mixture and mix well.
  • To temper, heat oil in a small pan, crackle mustard seeds and then add asafoetida and urad dal.  Once the dal changes colour, take it off the heat and pour it over the pachchadi mix.
  • Serve it chilled or at room temperature with sambhar or rasam rice.
