My home town in India is in a beautiful Himalayan state -Uttarakhand. Though I never lived there for a long period, our annual school breaks were reserved to visit our grandparents in Uttarakhand. Those were the most enjoyable holidays of my life - even better than the holidays we plan to the most exotic places in the world now. Most of the dishes in the Uttarakhand cuisine are very simple, made with basic fresh ingredients, and taste heavenly. So, I am sharing a simple and very popular recipe from Uttarakhand called Aloo ke gutke as the first recipe on my blog.
What is Aloo ke gutke?
It is a pan-fried potato recipe made in Indian style. If you ever travel to Uttarakhand you will find this dish in the menu card of every restaurant and dhaba. Even if you get the chance to visit a local person in Uttarakhand the chances are very high that you will be served aloo ke gutke with tea.
How to serve?
As an appetizer, this dish is generally served with some green chutney and tea. That’s the most common way of having it in the Pahadi style. Another very popular way of enjoying it is with pahadi raita. For breakfast, it’s served with paratha, puri, or roti (different types of Indian bread). In the main course, you can serve it with roti or rice and dal.
