todays recipe is punjabi style aloo sabji made with onions & tomatos with spices in a pressure cooker for faster cooking.

I made this with pressure cooker, but you can easily make it in a sauce pan. 

This has become my favourite combo.this is eaten as breakfast in many north indian homes .You can make it on any festival occasion too.A really delicious aloo tamatar curry which goes great with poori or bhatura. Love the little spicy, tangy curry a lot. It is pretty simple to make as well.
