1-Pan Potato (Aloo) Sabzi

1-Pan Potato (Aloo) Sabzi is a skillet sauté of diced potatoes, red onion, bell pepper, and fresh ginger with mustard seeds and red pepper flakes. The potatoes steam and develop a tender yet lightly crisp texture, accented by aromatic spices and a garnish of fresh cilantro. This simple vegetable dish accompanies Indian breads and curries or serves as a flavorful side.

Description

This recipe sautés finely diced red onion, grated fresh ginger, and mustard seeds in avocado or coconut oil until softened and aromatic. Red pepper flakes and sea salt add spice and seasoning. Chopped bell pepper is added next, then diced peeled potatoes are incorporated and coated in the spiced mixture.

The pan is covered to help steam the potatoes while cooking for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding water or oil if sticking occurs. The result is potatoes cooked through with tender edges and a subtle spiced flavor. Fresh chopped cilantro is added as a garnish to add brightness and herbal freshness.

1-Pan Potato Sabzi pairs well with Indian flatbreads like dosas or cheelas as well as curries or eggs, making it a versatile and flavorful side dish.

Leftovers store refrigerated for 4-5 days and can be reheated in a skillet or microwave. The dish is not suitable for freezing due to potato texture changes.

Ingredients

Servings

SABZI

  • 1 Tbsp avocado oil or coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup red onion finely diced
  • 1 ½ Tbsp ginger freshly grated
  • 1 tsp mustard seeds
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 healthy pinch sea salt plus more to taste
  • 1/2 cup bell pepper we prefer red, chopped
  • 4 medium yellow potato peeled and diced, or red potato

FOR SERVING optional

  • 1/4 cup cilantro finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium heat. Once hot, add oil, onion, ginger, mustard seeds, red pepper flake, and a healthy pinch of sea salt. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions are slightly translucent.
  2. Add the bell pepper and another pinch of salt. Sauté for 2-3 minutes. Then add the diced potatoes and another generous pinch of sea salt and stir to coat.
  3. Cover (to help steam the potatoes) and sauté for 20-25 minutes, reducing heat as needed and adding a splash of water (or oil) if the contents start sticking to the bottom of the pan. Stir occasionally.
  4. Serve as is, or garnish with fresh chopped cilantro. The perfect addition to dosas, cheelas, curries, egg dishes, and more! Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator up to 4-5 days. Reheat in the microwave or on in a skillet over medium heat until hot. Not freezer friendly.

Notes

  • Adapted from Holy Cow Vegan with approximate nutrition information excluding optional ingredients.
  • Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 4-5 days and reheat on the stovetop or microwave.
  • This dish does not freeze well because potatoes can become grainy after freezing and reheating.
