There are so many variations to Aloo Dum recipe all around India. All states have their unique method of preparing Aloo dum. Some call it Kashmiri Aloo dum. I love the way Sanjeev Kapoor has been making aloo dum.

In this recipe, baby potatoes are deep fried and then tossed into thick creamy based curry or gravy, which bring a perfect flavor to this recipe. Aloo dum is my personal favorite. As we know Kashmiri aloo dum is a no-onion and no-garlic recipe. But in this recipe we are using both onion and garlic, hence it is not Kashmiri dum aloo recipe. I have used red chilly powder in this dum aloo recipe to make it spicy but you can add it as per your taste.

I have also made some other similar styled recipe such as kadai paneer, gatte ki sabzi or paneer makhni, which you can also check Kadai Paneer, Paneer capsicum dry, Palak paneer, Paneer Butter Masala, etc.
