Aloo Chana Curry Recipe
Chana & Potatoes are such a lovely combination to cook with. They make awesome curries when cooked, because they both have the tendency to absorb the flavours which
you add in. I already have a dry version of aloo channa in my blog, this is a gravy version of it which I make very often at home. You can serve this with roti, parottas or rice. Hope you will enjoy it.
How to Make Aloo Chana Curry
- Heat oil in a pressure cooker. Add in cumin and let it sizzle for a min.
- In goes onions and saute till they turn golden.
- Add in ginger garlic paste and mix well.
- Now add in tomatoes and cook till oil separates.

- Add in salt and sugar to taste,
- Now add in channa, potatoes and toss well.
- Pour some water and pressure cook it for 3 whistle and simmer the flame for 10 mins. Now switch off the flame and let the pressure go all by itself.

@AnonymousThis is how i freeze channa dal. I soaked it overnight, Cooked it and freezed it. So i used that channa to make this. If you are making this with presoaked channa, you might need to cook for a little longer.

I made this for supper yesterday. I thought I was substantial enough, with the channa and potatoes, so I skipped the rice, and we just ate it with a little bit of bread. It tasted great! My husband liked it so much that he even took some of the leftover curry to work in his lunchbox 🙂 Just like you, I'm a big fan of potatoes, so I'll definitely try the dry version of this curry.
