Bharwan Aloo

Aloo based recipes are a dime a dozen! But this is my all-time favourite. I guarantee you, the stuffing used for the aloo here is a first-rate blend of tofu, nuts and spices… best combination in the whole world! Cream helps to blend the ingredients well so that it sticks well to the cavities in the scooped potatoes. Do not use big potatoes as they don't look good in the subzi, and also take longer to cook. Opt for small or medium sized potatoes. Keep them ready in advance, so that when a guest comes, you could just make the gravy, pour over the potatoes and serve. If need be, you could warm the subzi in an oven or microwave.
