Notes

  • Slice onion and potato in equal size for uniform cooking and texture. About ¼th of an inch works great. You can either slice them with knife or use mandolin of adjustable thickness.
  • If you can’t find coriander seeds you can substitute with coriander powder it tastes good too but for the best taste always use crushed coriander seeds. The crunch that comes in every mouthful is absolutely delightful.
  • When you are stir frying, cover them in-between and frequently stir them. It takes approximately 12-15 minutes of cooking so you can stir them every 3 minutes or so . In last leave them for 2-3 minutes to allow to develop some brown bits in the bottom of wok or kadai that is another delicious part about aloo pyaz sabzi.
  • If you can’t find amchoor or mango powder use juice of ¼ lime +½ teaspoon Cumin powder  in where you use amchoor. It may change the taste a bit but a slight tanginess in the sabzi is a must.
