Dum Aloo is very popular Indian dish, prepared using baby potatoes. I have shallow fried the baby potatoes and then cooked it in slow flame in gravy with spices. I have served this dish with Jeera Rice .This dish is perfect accompaniment for Indian Rice/Rotis. I must say this dish is very rich, super delicious and worth it.
