Drumstick Potato Curry – A very healthy and easy to make Sehjan aur Aloo ki delicious curry

Drumsticks potato curry- Sehjan/ Sojni are the pods of Moringa Plants. Moringa is  very nutritious and full of health benefits. It boosts immunity, enhance digestion, very good for bone health, regulates blood sugar so good for over all health. Moringa pods and leaves are high in antioxidants and Vitamin C.

We can use Moringa in so many ways . The leaves of Moringa tree can be added in daal , paratha and curries . The Drumstick pods / Sojni ki phali can be used to make sabji, soup and daals. The taste of Drumsticks is mild so goes well with all types of preparations.

I am sharing a very delicious and easy to make drumstick and potato curry. This sehjan phali aloo curry can be paired with any type of Pulao, rice, Roti or paratha. It can be served for lunch and dinner both.

We use Drumsticks in  Southern and Northern both types of cuisine . In Hindi Drumsticks are called as Singhi/ Sehjan/ Sojni . To make Drumstick curry try to choose medium thick , smooth, green drumsticks. Mature pods have hard seeds and the pulp is also not that delicious .
