Punjabi food is rich in texture & taste.The food is usually thick, creamy and ghee or butter is used abundantly. The cuisine is so versatile that sometimes Indian food is associated with Punjabi cuisine.Im so happy that i could take part in the RCI event.
Aloo Mutter is one of the famous dish from punjab.The recipes of this is as follows and ofcourse i have add my own way to cook it fast by pressure cooking it. But actual recipe calls for slow cooking ..
Ingredients:
Potatoes(medium sized) - 2 cubed
GreenPeas-1/2 cup Oil - 4 Tbsp
Purees
Onion (medium) - 1 1/2(chopped roughly)

Amachur Powder - 1 tsp
Kitchen King masala - 1 tsp
Turmeric - 1/2 tsp
Other Ingrediants
Salt - to taste
Water- 1 cup
Creame - 2 Tbsp( i used half & half milk instead of creame)
Chopped Coriander leaves
Method:
1) Heat 1Tbsp of oil in a kadai and fry the onions till brown.Cool it and make a puree of it.
2) Heat remaining oil in a pressure pan. Add all the spices to it and allow it to fry till a good fragance arise.
3) Add ginger garlic paste and saute for sometime.Then add the pureed onion to it and fry till it turns slight brown in color.
