The tangy, spicy aloo dum available in many phuchka
stalls of Kolkata have a separate fan base. The flavour riot of the spices
and the love for potatoes make this aloo dum a tasty treat that can’t
just be had once. But, what if the craving happens on a day when heading out is
not on the horizon? Masterchef India season 6’s first runners up chef Oindrila
Bala has a solution. The good chef has shared the recipe in a #Foodstagram
reel.
Psst… Oindrila has shown how to make the secret ingredient
of this aloo dum — bhaja masala (a spice mix dry roasted and
grinded). “Growing up, one of my absolute must-have street food treats was the aloo
dum sold by the puchkawala bhaiyas in the South of Kolkata…”
wrote the chef reminiscing. The reel will make you crave, and the easy recipe
will make you try it out. Reeling from the post Durga Puja mood? Then, this
tangy treat is what we need before we gear up for the next festival — Lakshmi
Puja.
