Tips for Making Perfect Aloo Potato Masala:
Boil Potatoes Until Tender: Boil the potatoes until they are fork-tender before mashing them for the Aloo Potato Masala. This ensures that the potatoes are cooked through and have a smooth and creamy texture. Temper the Spices: Temper whole spices such as mustard seeds, cumin seeds, and curry leaves in hot oil before adding other ingredients. This releases their flavors and aromas, enhancing the overall taste of the Aloo Potato Masala. Finish with Fresh Herbs: Garnish the Aloo Potato Masala with freshly chopped cilantro or coriander leaves just before serving for a burst of freshness and color. Herbs add a vibrant touch to the dish and elevate its presentation.
Can I make Aloo Potato Masala ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the Aloo Potato Masala ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Reheat it gently on the stovetop or in the microwave before serving with dosa or other dishes.
Is Aloo Potato Masala gluten-free?
Yes, Aloo Potato Masala is naturally gluten-free as it’s made with potatoes, vegetables, and spices, which are all gluten-free ingredients. It’s a safe and delicious option for individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease.
Can I freeze Aloo Potato Masala?
While you can freeze Aloo Potato Masala, the texture may change slightly upon thawing. It’s best to freeze the masala in an airtight container for up to 1-2 months and thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
What can I serve with Aloo Potato Masala?
Aloo Potato Masala pairs perfectly with dosa, a South Indian crepe made from fermented rice and lentil batter. It can also be served with idli (steamed rice cakes), uttapam (Indian-style savory pancakes), or puri (deep-fried bread).
Aloo Potato Masala is a delicious and versatile dish that’s perfect for savoring with dosa or as a filling for various Indian snacks and dishes. Whether enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, or as a comforting meal option, its hearty flavors and creamy texture are sure to delight your taste buds and leave you craving for more.

Would this taste as good without the chiles? I can’t eat anything spicy. Is there something else I could add for flavor without the heat from the chiles? Thanks!
Jun, Yes you can do without chilies.
Awesome
I would like to thank you for making such site and what a great job going.. you r the best .. keep it up
Dear Manjula,
Thank you very much for your great service of putting these great recipes on the web. I am a vegan so most of your recipes are very usefull for me.
We are going to have a food fair on a Saturday from 10.00 am to 9.00 pm to raise money for our temple to build a meditation centre (to provide free meditation for the public.) We are going to offer Masala Dosa there. We are going to make the Masala Aloo the night before. My worry is that it might go off by the following day afternoon. What do you think if we put it in a fridge and heat up little by little on the fair day? Please give your suggestion.
Thanks and Best Regards- Rashmi

Hi Manjula,
Just wanted to let you know that I tried this reciepe and it came out great. The only extra thing I added was onions because its a must for me. Though I didnt stuff the masala inside Dosa but had it seperately with Dosa. Also a good combination is to have with Rice and Curd ,Very yummy 🙂
Cheers, Krish
This is wonderful aloo masala, aunty! Like you say, it is good with any dosa. Thank you!
Manjula Ji,
Found you via youtube,ive been learning so much from you for the past 3 months, your recipes have made their way on my dining table, thank you for sharing your talent and recipies. i have learnt a lot from you. Love and support from Albuquerque, NM.
I really enjoy the method of your cooking, My North Indian friend Meena was helping me in fact to trace your site as she was very successful in following your recipe. Me too.. Tom
Dear Manjula aunty,
I made the moong dal dosa and this dry aloo to go with it, one word for you” YUM”
Hi Manjula Aunty,

Just saw that yours is not too old a poasting. So you have given uponions/garlic – and are finding it difficult.
My dear – India is the cradle of Vaisnava and Jain cooking.
There are Hare Krisna cook books which omit onion and garlic. However, you will generally find that Tamil and Gujerati recipes abound that don’t use onion/garlic. Replace with Hing. Like baking without eggs. There absolutely wonderous recipes on internet for egless baking – and you can get good advice on many of these from users.
Enjoy your new culinary adventure!! Here in the midst of Budapest I have just made three wonderful chutneys, and am about to do my allo for the dosa filling. I have fermented my batter in a wide-necked thermos. And I think it will taste wonderful!! It’s not the sort of food you can get in restaurants here – as the few Indian restaurants that are here are pretty poor.I do much better!!
Hi Manjulaji,
I love your website! I am getting married soon and even though my fiance doesnt expect me to cook.. I WANT to make delicious healthy food for him. But since we both stopped eating ANYTHING with onion and garlic in, I was having trouble finding good vegetarian recipes. Now you have provided the solution! Yippee.. am excited about cooking for him now 😀 Thanks sooo much!
no video for this..??
Thank you for this delicious recipe Aunty!
Great! And it was super easy!
the best ever Indian vegetarian website.
Dear Manjulaji,
Can we peel the potato skin, cut into cubes then cook it in the oil (with the cracked cumin, mustard seed etc) instead of boiling it?
Manjula,
Your recipes are so delicious!!!! Thank you very much.
Hi Manjula, great stuff! I love Indian and Pakistani food! Learn a lot from your videos! You are getting famous! Bings
Dear Manjula, Many thanks for so many excellent recipes. Whenever I watched your YOU TUBE recipes, I didnt only look at your way of cooking, preparing or at the ingredients used but also how nicely you keep your kitchen neat and clean with simple, transparent utensils which is very attractive, to the eyes. Cooking based on your recipes are not only welcomed by hungary stomachs but I think people become greedy all though their stomach is full 🙂 Last but not the least !! – I liked it very much when I read your words ” NEVER MIND IF IT DOESNT TURN OUT THE WAY IT IS SHOWN IN THE RECIPE, BE HAPPY YOU HAVE CREATED A NEW RECIPE !! Thanks a lot and keep up the good work !! Kind regards Sangeeta
Hi Sangeeta, Thank you

Hello Manjula, I am new as a vegetarian and when watching you cook on your videos, I could almost smell the great aroma coming from your cooking. I had never eaten food from your culture before but it now one of my most favorites and I appreciate you taking the time to share such wonderful recipes with myself and others. May you have much Peace and Blessings, Dee
Thank you for your recipes. You are very kind. May you be happy, healthy, and free from suffering.
Dear Manjulaji, Namaskar! Your allo sabji for dosa is good one. I added like South Indians 1 teaspoon of Chana dal and 1tsp. of Dhuli Urad Dal when jeera starts cracking and fry for few seconds till it gives nutty smell. South Indians also use onions but I don’t want to put that as it is not pure vegetarian for many of us. Thank you for your simple and delicious recipes. Poppy

Wow aunty its a great dish for the mornings. will make every sunday for my too kids. keep them recipies coming.
I forgot to mention to coarsely mash the potatos with the back of a fork when using for sandwich filling.
ANOTHER VARIATION: You can also use this potato dish to make “Aloo Toast” or “Potato Toast”. Make it like you would any grilled sandwich. Spread about half inch thick of potato mixture on a slice of bread. Plain white bread works well, but wheat would probably taste fine also. Cover with another slice of bread and gently pat the bread into the mixture so it “sticks” to the potato and won’t fall about when you flip it during grilling. Lightly butter each side of the sandwich and grill in a frying pan on medium high heat until golden brown on each side. Press down with the spatula on each side as you cook it. Serve with your choice of green coriander chutney (hari chutni) or tomato ketchup. Kids also love this sandwich. This isn’t the most nutritious sandwich, but it’s yummy in a comfort food kind of way. Enjoy!
Jaya Hi this is Monica, I tried the reciepe and I also made sandwiches on the grill – they were delicous.. I served green salad on the side and it made a great meal.
I made this last night and just served it as a side dish with my black eyed peas. It was wonderful and I ate the rest as leftovers today. You have a great website and I look forward to trying more of your recipes. The videos are also very helpful. I’m so glad that I found your website!
Thank you for sharing your cooking skills with us!!
