Poori Bhaji Combo: 6 Aloo Curry (Bhaji) Recipes To Pair With Soft, Flaky Poori
What comes to your mind when we say classic Indian breakfast? One of the first options we can think of is poori-bhaji. Crispy, flaky pooris with spicy aloo curry – the quintessential combination instantly tugs at heartstrings. While poori majorly remains the same everywhere, what leaves us mesmerized is the aloo curry. Every region across India has its own unique ways to prepare aloo ki sabzi (or bhaji). While Bengalis keep it simple with a tadka of kalonji, people in Benaras enjoy it with spicy gravy (aloo rasedaar). Considering its versatility, we curated a list of the hearty aloo curry recipes from across India that will add some twist to the evergreen breakfast combo (poori-bhaji). Let’s take a look.
