Potato sabzi |No onion no garlic recipe – Easy no onion no garlic version of potato masala recipe with full video and step-by-step pictures.
We usually make potato masala for poori. Apart from the South Indian version we make the North Indian style Aloo masala too. This one is a super easy one without the addition of onion and garlic. Many people always run out of ideas when it comes to the No onion no garlic version of the Side dish for chapati.
This potato sabzi recipe my mom used to make during our childhood days. Those days chapati is a very rare thing at home. We used to consume more Idli and dosa. Whenever amma makes chapati, she makes Veg kurma as side dish. During one of the summer holidays, my mom learned this recipe from my athai. Onion and garlic are not widely used in our cooking those days.
We used to enjoy this along with chapati and poori. If you are looking for a simple no onion no garlic recipe for this fasting season, then try out this simple potato sabzi recipe.

Potato sabzi recipe
Ingredients
- 2 boiled potatoes
- 4 tsp oil
- ½ tsp cumin seeds
- 2 tsp red chili powder
- ½ tsp turmeric powder
- Salt as needed
- 2 tbsp Coriander leaves
- 1 cup water
To grind
- 3 tsp coriander seeds
- ½ tsp cumin seeds
- 1 inch ginger
- 2 tomatoes
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes till they are soft. I cooked in a pressure cooker for 4 whistles.
- Take out the skin and roughly mash it and keep aside.
- Grind the tomatoes, ginger, coriander seeds and ½ tsp cumin seeds into a fine paste.
- In a pan add oil and add ½ tsp of cumin seeds.
- Once it starts crackling, add the ground tomato paste to this.
- Add turmeric powder, red chili powder and salt to this.
- Mix well and cook this for 2 minutes.
- Now add the potatoes.
- Mix well and add 1 cup of water.
- Cover this and cook for 5 -7 minutes.
- Stir in between.
- If you feel the gravy is thick, add little more water and boil for a minute.
- Switch off the flame.
- Garnish with finely chopped coriander leaves.
- Serve with chapati or poori or jeera rice.
Notes
1. You can add 1 slit green chili while adding the cumin seeds and reduce the red chili powder. 2. You can add 1 tsp of garam masala in the last before adding coriander leaves for the aloo sabzi.
