Poori Bhaji – Aloo Bhaji – Aloo Poori Bhaji

June 18, 2020 Dals/GraviesPotato Recipes  No comments

Poori Bhaji is a very popular north Indian combo. South Indians would vote for Poori Masala. This is also a very yummy combo since both are potato based recipes. Potato is an all rounder veggie. I have been wanting to post this recipe here since a long time. This Aloo Poori Bhaji is Chotu`s favourite. He once tried in this in a restaurant and became a fan of it. It is simple to make. Try this combo next time u make pooris. Check HERE for Poori recipe.

Here is the video..

 

Now to the recipe..
