  • Aloo Gosht Recipe

    Aloo gosht is a everyday meal, cooked in every single home, but not all the aloo gosht recipes tastes all that great. Cooking method of this recipe is slightly changed which make taste excellent. Next time when you have plan to make Aloo Gosht , try this one recipe.

    I was about 10 when Pakistan’s first private television channel – NTM started broadcasting. Thunder cats became my favorite cartoons back then. The Thunder Cats used to be aired around dinner time. Meaning all of us siblings and cousind will be fixated around the tv while having dinner.
    My Mommy gave up on trying to station us at the dinner table while our favorite cartoons were on. At that time, my favorite dinner was Aloo Gosht (Potato Meat Curry) served with a paratha or a bowl of rice while watching our favorite cartoons. Life was perfect!

    I can’t seem to forget those Dinner prepared by mom. A steaming pile of boiled rice slathered in curry flavored with fresh ground spices and drippings of meat. Tender and juicy pieces of mutton which you pull apart with fingers and potatoes cooked to the point of crumbling but still retaining their shape till you serve them in the plate. Simple, homey and satisfying – plain soul food for us. A tradition which conjures up numerous childhood memories.

    It still amazes me how a 10 year old could eat parathas without any guilt or even a remote thought of weight gain. Now I feel that even the thought of having a buttered paratha adds couple of pounds to one’s waist.
    So Today, I am sharing my favorite aloo gosht recipe in the loving memory of my childhood, guilt free Paratha and rice eating and being a 10 year old.

    It can be served with pea pulao, home made chappati – flat bread or buttered paratha.
