Dubki wale aloo curry

Dubki wale aloo curry is a specialty of the Indian city Mathura. With just spices this potato curry turns out so delicious, filling and comforting. Serve with poori or kachori for a true soul food. Here is how to make Matura ke dubki wale aloo curry.

Mathura ke Dubki wale aloo

Mathura is one of the holi cities of India. It is the birth place of Lord Krishna and one of the seven holi cities for Hindus. This dubki wale aloo curry with kachori is a very popular dish from Mathura. It is a very simple and humble curry made without onions and garlic. It has just few spices but tastes absolutely delicious.

I tasted this curry in a friend’s place and loved it very much. I had taken the recipe of dubki wale aloo from her few years back. I make this curry very often especially when I don’t have time for making anything elaborate. While I don’t make kachori very often, this curry goes very well with poori.

Potatoes and poori is always an awesome combo so when not making this traditional south Indian potato masala for poori, I end up making dubki aloo or aloo jhol. Not only poori this curry also tastes very good with rice or roti.

Dubki means to swim and here potatoes are like swimming in the curry. However I have made it a bit thick by simmering the curry for few extra minutes.

To make Mathura ke dubki wale aloo you can use regular as well as baby potatoes. I have made the whole curry in pressure cooker as it saves so much time. There is absolutely no need to boil the potatoes once and use another pot to make the curry. Just peel & cube the potatoes and make the curry in a pressure cooker. You can easily mash the aloo while the curry is cooking.

The spices and other ingredients for dubki wale aloo are dried red chilies, ginger, whole coriander seeds, cumin seeds etc. You will also need your regular spice powders like turmeric powder, red chili powder and dash of garam masala powder.

Traditionally dubki wale aloo is made with mustard oil. If you are used to cook with mustard oil you can use it in this recipe otherwise any cooking oil will be good.

Along with the time taken for chopping, this curry can be made in flat 15 minutes in a pressure cooker.

Serve dubki wale aloo warm or hot with poori, paratha or rice. You can also pack this curry in lunch box.
