Dum Aloo image

Dum aloo is a traditional kashmiri dish- but there are a number of versions and preparation techniques for this delightful potato recipe.Every region has its own version of this dish. My preparation today is this sweet and buttery baby yellow potatoes cooked in a rich creamy gravy and resembled the Punjabi dum aloo i had at a restaurant recently....
