potato sagu recipe | bombay sagu for poori recipe | aloo saagu recipe with step by step photo recipe. basically a simple curry prepared from mashed potato, onion and tomatoes. also, it is mixed with grounded roasted chana dal or roasted bengal gram or putani in kannada. this gives a unique tastes to this curry.

sagu recipe has always been my favourite recipe. be it a mixed veg sagu or potato sagu recipe. whenever i prepare poori or set dose recipe, saagu recipe is always prepared as side dish. unlike other curries, sagu recipe has a subtle flavour and a medium spice. also the mashed potato would enhance the taste to make it full of starchy taste. furthermore, with respect to vegetable it is just potato, however some even add boiled peas. i personally does not recommend for bombay sagu recipe.

furthermore, bombay sagu can also be served with plain chapathi and roti. this sagu is not just limited for breakfast recipes, asit tastes great with rice and roti too. if you do not like it to be thick gravy for rice, make it thinner by adding some water. also, i have added 2 slit green chillies which is more than sufficient for breakfast dishes. however, you may require more spiciness for roti and rice servings. lastly, do not boil the curry after adding the mashed potato as it would thicken the curry.

finally, do visit my other indian curry recipe collection for roti and rice. specifically, mixed veg sagu, aloo bhaji recipe, bhaingan bharta, sev tomato ki sabji and dum aloo recipe. also do check my indian breakfast recipes collection. particularly poori recipe, aloo ki poori recipe, plain dosa, uttappam and rava idli recipe.
