Aloo Mangodi ki Sabzi- Thin and mildly spiced potato and lentil nuggets curry – Specialty from Rajasthan
Aloo Mangodi ki Sabzi- Rajasthani cuisine is famous for its spicy and rich food. Due to the hot climate fresh vegetables was not easily available in Rajasthan during hot summer months so mangodi and sun dried vegetables are preferred to make curries.
Mangodi /bari are sun dried lentil cakes or nuggets,they are made by soaked and ground lentils and then few spices are added into it to give taste and flavors.These mangodis are made on a polythene sheet and then sundried for 2-3 days and then they are roasted and used to make subzi and kadis.
This aloo mangodi curry is made thin like a soup ,but some also like it slightly thick ,depends on individual preference.This aloo mangodi subzi is best served with rice, aloo tehri ,khichdi and chapati.This aloo mangodi ki sabzi is a specialty from Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh.In my community this is popular as tari bari ki sabzi and served with khichdi,tehri and roti.

Notes
Note-
1-Pressure cooking time depends on the size of potatoes and quality of mangodis.
2- If the mangodis are ready made then you can pressure cook or boil them before adding in the curry because sometimes ready made vadis have besan added in to it so they are not as soft as home made vadis as addition of besan makes them hard.
3-You can reduce the quantity of potatoes if you want to make it thinner ,but avoid making it too thick,as it taste best with a thin gravy,but you can adjust according to your taste.
4-Instead of making tomato puree you can also add chopped tomato,chili and ginger at step-6 Serving suggestions-serve aloo mangodi ki sabzi with khichdi, tahri ,daal rice combo and chapatis
