Weekdays are all about finishing work and completing assignments; we barely get time to take a breath, let alone make something elaborate and delicious! We wish to indulge in yummy food like the tandoori flavour of paneer tikka or tandoori aloo but it is impractical and unhealthy to order food every day. While our go-to dish is something as simple as aloo ki sabzi or baigan ka bharta, it can get mundane to eat these dishes every day. So, if you are bored of eating the same old aloo ki sabzi, this recipe gives the mundane potatoes a spicy twist and it is called tandoori aloo bharta!
