aloo gajar recipe with step by step photos – delicious dry sabzi or veggie preparation with potatoes and carrots.

with fresh red delhi carrots and new potatoes in the winter season, thought of sharing one simple sabzi that i make at home. the recipe is a no onion no garlic version.

this is a standard recipe i follow to make gajar matar or aloo gajar matar. for a quicker cooking, i usually use a pressure cooker and thats the method, i have shown in the stepwise pics. but you can even cook in a pan or wok/kadai. you can also use baby potatoes to make this sabji.

being a dry sabzi and one which is not spicy, this aloo gajar recipe goes very well as tiffin box lunch with some soft chapatis or parathas. you can also pair this aloo gajar sabzi with a combo of dal-rice. this can also be served with bread. in fact you can even make toast sandwiches with the sabzi as a stuffing.
