Easy Restaurant Style Saag Aloo
ฝัง

- A beautifully spiced dish made with potatoes and spinach, saag aloo makes a great side dish for curry night, or a delicious and filling lunch by itself.
Such a classic on the British Indian Restaurant menu, Saag Aloo is serious comfort food. It's easy to prepare, and you should be able to pick up all of the ingredients at the supermarket.
I like to add a bit of chilli heat to mine, plus a dash of stock - which works together with the ghee and spices to create an amazing aromatic sauce that clings to the potatoes and spinach.
Free printable recipe is available on our site: www.kitchensanctuary.com/saag...
To par boil your potatoes:
1. Place the potatoes in a pan and cover with cold water.
2. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 8-10 minutes until tender.
3. Once cooked, drain the potatoes.
Serves 4
Ingredients for the Saag Aloo:
600 g (1.3 lbs) potatoes peeled and chopped into bite-size pieces (waxy or floury potatoes are fine - I use Rooster potatoes)
3 tbsp ghee or sunflower oil
2 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 large red onion peeled and diced
2 cloves garlic minced
1 red chilli finely chopped (use a milder chilli such as serrano or fresno if you don’t like it too hot, or use a hotter chilli such as a couple of birds eye chillies if you like it spicier).
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp garam masala
1/8 tsp ground fenugreek
1 tbsp tomato puree
1/4 tsp salt
120 ml (½ cup) chicken stock
150 g (4 packed cups) baby spinach
To serve:
Fresh coriander
Instructions:
1. Place the potatoes in a pan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 8-10 minutes until tender.
2. Once cooked, drain the potatoes.
3. Meanwhile heat the ghee or oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat, until hot.
4. Add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds and cook for 1 minute until the seeds start to pop.
5. Turn the heat down to medium, add in the onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions soften.
6. Add in the garlic and chilli and cook for a further minute.
7. Add in the turmeric, garam masala, fenugreek, tomato puree and cook for a minute, stirring together to coat the onions.
8. Then add in the boiled potatoes and salt. Stir again to coat the potatoes.
9. Add the stock and spinach, stir and heat for a minute until the spinach wilts.
10. Serve topped with fresh coriander.

Hi Nicki. You’re an inspiration. I’m nearly 70 and only started cooking a few months ago using your recipes. My wife of nearly 50 years is amazed and grateful to you as well. So far we’ve enjoyed your full Roast Beef recipes including Yorkshire Puds ( that she tells me are the best she’s had), crispy roast potatoes and cauliflower cheese. Roast Lamb and Dauphinoise potatoes, Your easy roast chicken dinner, Chicken Carbonara, Saag Aloo and Fish pie. My Wife loves to cook so I’m not taking over, just doing a regular Sunday Roast and one evening supper dish per week. I can’t thank you enough for getting me started. My very best to you and your family. 🥰
Nice post Bob.
Do you have a spare room in your house for me lol.

Great recipe Nicky! Hope I spelled that right. I am fairly new to the channel and I might’ve missed a lentil recipe you may have done before but if you haven’t, can you please do a video of the lentil recipe? Love your simple recipes!
Waoooooooo🤤🤤🤤🤤

💙💙💙👍
Yummy! 😀❤️
Thank you 😋
Hi Nikki... happy healthy new year to you and yours. ❤
I just would like to ask if i can omitt the tomato puree, because i will be making your butter chicken, and slow cooked beef madras, for my curry night, which both already have passatta in the recipes
"The seeds are gonna jump out the pan an' try n' shoot at ya" 😂😂😂 Isn't that the truth
Healthy recipe, I love it. One thing, though, spinach is not saag. Saag is mustard leaves.
The recipe you are cooking is Aloo palak. Palak means spinach
Me: Not Keto!
Also Me: SO WHAT????? 😂😂😂
That looks soooo yummy! I love Indian food. And potatoes.
Thank you for quick, no-nonsense videos & major carb temptations!
Awesome channel... @ 1:36, what spices are you putting in ? I hear 'tumeric.'...and what are the other two ? Thanks so much for letting me know.
This looks good enough to eat on its own 😄👍
Looks excellent...love sag aloo.I'm really enjoying your recipe ideas. Quick side note...I've just changed toan induction hob and wonder if you can recomend pans that will work. It's a nightmare to find ones that will given we've only got the notoriously variable net reviews to trawl through at the moment!
Take a strong magnet pot shopping with you. If the magnet sticks to the pot, it will work on induction.
I can't find fenugreek unfortunately, what can I use instead
it IS healthy
🤘🏽ultimate
Can I use frozen spinach?
Would it work using mustard powder and cumin powder instead of seeds?
Red skin potatoes have less calorie count. They taste delicious too.
Hi Nicky love this and can't wait to try it, perfect for my Chicken Madras.
On a side note i subscribed to your news letter 3 times now thinking i had made a mistake, because i don't seem to have the link for the free e-book, i have checked everything and it's all the same no e-book link, hope you can help.
Stay Safe,
Barry (Wirral)
Did you get that wok burner that you wanted 😁
Its a temporary solution but its a good one. Chris and I have been thinking about refitting the kitchen so we're holding off for the permanent solution :)
That is soooooooo naughty 👌🏻
DELICIOUS
Very!
@@Kitchensanctuary oh yes
I much prefer to add the potatoes raw and cut slightly smaller. This way, they cook in the sauce and absorb more flavour.
hello my friend, how are you
We need a Q&A with your husband
Hi
Carbs give you alot of energy but remember always exercise afterward or y'all get fat
This dish did not turn out well according to this recipe. The boiled potatoes quickly turned to mashed potatoes as soon as they were stirred, and the spinach did not wilt easily.
First
Yay
Hate the pronunciation, most professional chefs don't even do it justice, but the recipe is fucking fire
Her pronunciation 🤣🤣🤣
