METHOD --

Baby potato ko boil kar ke peal kar le. Potato ko fry karne se pehle ek folk ki help se potato ko pierce kar le jis se potato ko cook karte time usme masale achi tarah se mix ho jaye.

Dum aloo banane ke liye potato ko deep fry kiya jata hai but yahan hum potato ko deep fry na kar ke potato ko stir fry karenge because deep fry karne se potato jyada oily ho jate hain or mostly peoples ko oily food pasand nahi aata so ek pan me 1 tsp ghee garam kar ke potato ko 4-5 minute ke liye saute kar le.

Same pan me chopped onion ginger garlic add kare or saute kar le jab tak tomato or onion soft na ho. ye step totaly optional hai aap direct onion and ginger garlic ka paete bana le. But mai onion ko paste karne se pehle unko saute karti hu because mujhe raw onion paste ki smell bilkul nahi pasand so mai onion paste banane se pehle same oily pan jisme humne potato saute kiye the onion ko bhi saute kar ke unka paste bana le. Is se aapki greavy ko ek rich color or taste bhi milta hai.

Onion and ginger garlic paste banane ke baad jar me tomato or green chilli ki bhi ek smooth puree bana le. Dum allo banane ke liye aapke ingredients ready hain.

Ek pan me baki ka ghee garam kare. Ghee garam hone ke baad usme cumin seeds black paper bay leaf cinnamon clove black cardamom gheen cardamom dry red chilli add kar ke saute kar le.

Whole masale saute karne ke baad usme onion ginger garlic paste add kare or 2 minue ke liye saute kar le.

Onion paste ko saute karne ke baad tomato green chilli puree bana  add kar ke mix kar le. Degi mirch salt turmaric powder coriander powder garam masala powder dry pomegranate seed powder add kare or mix kar ke 4-5 minute tak cook kar le.

Curd ko ek bowl me nikal kar ek cup pani ke sath mix kar ke achi tarah se beat kar le. Tomato onion masala cook hone ke baad curd add kare or continue stir karte hue dahi ke thick hone tak cook kar le.

Fried potato dry fenugreek leaves and ek cup water add kare or greavy ke thick hone tak cook kar le. Potato ko greavy ke sath minimum 6-7 minute ke liye cook kare jis se greavy ke flavour potato absorb kar le. greavy ki consistency thick hone ke baad gas flame ko off kar de.
