Aloo Tamatar Sabji  is very simple to put together and makes for a perfect meal . Pairs well with rotis,puris and even simple veg pulao or Peas Pulao

One can hardly go wrong with this recipe.  Potatoes and tomatoes are the most versatile and staple ingredients used in Indian cuisine and they are very easy to handle.  For me at home,I always ensure that there is enough stock of potatoes, tomatoes, green chillies and corriander at home . With just these 4 main ingredients you can create magic in your kitchen.
