Carrots Potato Stir-fry with Chapati – Aloo Gajar ki Sabzi

Carrots and Potato stir-fry is a popular dish from North of India. I used to have it nearly every other in the winter season, when juicy red carrots are available.

It is filling and super nutritious side-dish or full meal option as we have done for this post. You can also add green peas, cauliflower, or fenugreek leaves (methi) to this recipe and make it more versatile.

This is a kids friendly recipe and highly beneficial for them. It is recommended for all age groups, for Diabetics, PCOS, Pregnancy, and New mothers.

Carrots and Potato stir-fry is simple, one pot, and easy recipe to make. It pairs well with chapati (Indian flat bread). Or you can have it with porridge, steamed rice, and dosa as well.

This recipe carries a hint of sweetness. It is crunchy in texture. And the best thing is that it balances all Dosha. Recommended for breakfast or dinner.
