About Aloo chokha

Aloo Chokha is a flavorful mashed potato dish originating from traditional Bihari cuisine in India. This simple yet aromatic preparation typically includes boiled potatoes mashed with mustard oil, finely chopped onions, garlic, green chilies, coriander leaves, and a blend of spices like turmeric and salt. Rich in cultural essence, Aloo Chokha is often served with litti (a roasted wheat dough ball) or alongside rice and lentils. From a nutritional perspective, Aloo Chokha is a good source of carbohydrates and provides dietary fiber and potassium from the potatoes. The mustard oil used adds healthy fats and lends a distinct, robust flavor. However, its calorie content can be higher due to the oil, making portion control important. Packed with fresh ingredients like chilies and garlic, it also offers vitamins and antioxidants, making it a wholesome addition to a balanced meal when consumed in moderation.
