Aloo chokha

The word chokha reminds me aloo/potato and nothing else here,as a kid my mother would serve us chokha with dal chawal,aloo being every childs favourite, we siblings had no issue eating chokha,soft & silky in texture. A very popular dish in any Uttar pradeshi or Bihari family.

Aloo chokha itself being spicy n tangy,one did not need any sabzi and that was the purpose of this chokha.

Have them while it’s hot,you’ll be drooling. Winter’s are the best time to eat chokha.

So let’s see what goes in making this chokha
