Achari Aloo is a spicy, tangy potato dry dish with lot of flavours. I had planned to make this dish for a long time and searched for a good homely recipe. I got reminded of the recipe in US Masala and followed her recipe exactly. It tasted so good and everyone at home loved it with paratha. Original recipe is here
