Aloo Matar, or Aloo Muttur, is a dish originating from northern India, which consists of potatoes (aloo) and peas (matar) in a spiced creamy tomato sauce. It's a very filling and budget-friendly meal, and very enjoyable throughout the whole year. We often order the dish from our favourite Indian restaurants, but wonderfully speedy to make it yourself at home too!
Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the oil, coriander seeds, and cumin seeds. Toast the spices, stirring throughout, for 1 - 2 minutes.
Then add the onion, garlic, and ginger. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring often.
Then add the salt, garam masala, turmeric, cayenne, and pepper. Toast for 30 - 60 seconds, stirring throughout.
Add the potatoes to the pot. Cook for 3 - 4 minutes, stirring frequently.
Pour in the tomatoes, water, and bouillon. Cover, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cooking for 15 minutes. Then remove the lid and cook uncovered for another 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through.
Add the peas and coconut cream and let heat through.
Serve with rice or naan, and enjoy!
Notes
†Coconut cream is the thick layer found on the top of a can of coconut milk. Placing the can of coconut milk in the fridge overnight can help the fat layer separate more easily, and yields more cream.

This was tasty but ours came out really runny, more like a soup. Bit disappointed, as it looks so nice and creamy in the pictures. Not sure what we could have done wrong

Hey there, Kelsey, thanks for sharing your experience with the aloo matar recipe. We're sad to hear this! Did you remove the lid in step five to let the dish cook uncovered? This helps a lot of the extra liquid evaporate. It's also possible that your veggies were a different size or had more moisture than ours. In case it helps, our medium-sized potatoes are around 130 grams each. We hope you enjoy our other recipes more 🤗
Kelsey M - Aug. 27, 2024, 11:43 p.m.
Thank you! We did cook it uncovered, even longer than stated as we thought it was looking liquidy. The weight is helpful to know. I'll give it another shot for sure - we've tried many recipes and this is the only one we've made that hasn't worked out well for us. Thanks for everything you do!

I added in a carrot for extra veg and used fresh tomatoes to use up the ones that were too ripe. Came out tasty. I think we will have it as is, without rice or naan. 🥔🍲

Hey Emily, yes you can substitute whole for ground coriander and cumin. We'd recommend starting with a tad less and adding more to taste as ground spices offer a more intense and immediate flavour compared to whole spices 😊

Any suggestions on how to achieve that consistency as well?
PUL Team - Oct. 9, 2023, 6:53 p.m.
Hey Mreis, great eye! The aloo matar dish becomes thicker as it sits, which is why it may look thicker in our photos compared to the video. If you prefer a thicker texture, you can add less boiling water initially or extend the simmering time 😊

STAPLE BUDGET MEAL!
This is now a staple recipe because it is so easy to swap out the vegetables with whatever I have on hand.
I live in a very dry climate so I found that I had to continue to add water several times because it started to stick to the pan and I didnt want to add oil. I also went heavier on the spices than what is listed because I like strong flavors but it is still yum if you follow the recipe.

Really great recipe! I've made it a few times (and currently simmering another batch) with a different tweak here and there after the first trial. My husband was not a fan of the whole spices the first time (he has had a hard food item crack a tooth before so now anything like that puts him off) so I just use the ground versions in a higher quantity. I tend to double the spices in any Indian dish I make at home so I'm heavy handed on them in this recipe as well.. except the cayenne! (Several of us can't handle the heat so I barely add any) I serve it with basmati or jasmine rice and homemade naan. Thanks for a great recipe that is now part of our regular rotation!
PUL Team - March 2, 2022, 5:23 p.m.

I thought this was delicious but I do have one critique. The automatic serving scale for this recipe is a little off in terms of ratios. I halved the recipe, which I usually do with all of them on here, never have had a problem except this recipe. In my opinion, it didnt provide enough liquid in the pot. I added more liquid, tomato juice from the can and water but that took away from the flavors. Overall it was a success but I don't necessarily agree with the conversions. Will be making this again!
PUL Team - Feb. 3, 2022, 1:41 a.m.
Hey Katherine, thanks a bunch for taking the time to share the feedback with us! It's so appreciated to help us improve. The only thing that comes to mind at the moment is that the potatoes you used may have been larger than the ones we used. If that was perhaps the case, they would soak up more of the liquid when cooking, which is perhaps why you found there wasn't enough liquid in the pot. In any case, we're happy to hear you'll be trying it again, and I hope this helps for now 😊

I love this recipe. I've never tried this dish in any indian restaurant so I didn't know what to expect (but of course I knew it was going to be delicious because is a PUL recipe), and I loved it. My potatoes took more time to cook, maybe I cut them too big? But the result was super duper yummy!

Hey there, Clari, it means so much that the curry was enjoyed! The potatoes indeed may take a bit longer to cook if cut larger, if there's more, or the heat is a tad lower. Our medium potatoes are around 170 grams if it helps 😊

Hi Efrat! Thanks for the question. The coriander seeds help give the recipe an earthy spice although they could be omitted if desired. Alternatively, another seed (such as cumin, caraway, or mustard seeds) or more dried spices (such as coriander, cumin or curry powder) could be used in its place to taste. We hope you enjoy this one if you're able to give it a try 🤗

just finished eating this super tasty meal, indeed it was easy to make and I would definitely have it again.

Hi, Savvik 🌻 Thanks so much for the honest review and feedback. It's super valuable to help us improve!

What a delicious and nourishing meal! I only realized during the cooking process that I didn't have any frozen peas, so I used edamame instead. And I might leave out the cayenne pepper the next time because I personally found it a bit hot. Thank you so much for all the wonderful recipes!

Thank you for the review, Constanze! Edamame is a lovely substitute 😃

Excellent receipies. Could please share some healthy RICE brand that I can purchase in Canada? Can you also share some brand for Fortified rice? red rice brand?
PUL Team - April 20, 2021, 6:23 a.m.
Hey Dhivya! The brands may vary depending on where in Canada home is for you. Brown rice, red rice, and wild rice are delicious sources of fibre. White rice is another option you may enjoy.
To see if a food product is fortified and help compare brands, looking at the nutrition facts table is a good strategy. For more information on how to read a nutrition facts table here’s a resource: fda.gov/food/new-nutrition-fa… 🙂

Aw you're too sweet, Jiya! Thanks for the awesome feedback and support 🥰

This was tasty but ours came out really runny, more like a soup. Bit disappointed, as it looks so nice and creamy in the pictures. Not sure what we could have done wrong
I added in a carrot for extra veg and used fresh tomatoes to use up the ones that were too ripe. Came out tasty. I think we will have it as is, without rice or naan. 🥔🍲
Again a delicious recipe, PUL never disappoints :-)
Easy and delicious!
Quite simple and very delicious!
Easy to make and soooo tasty 🤤 This is my go to Indian meal from now on
This may be the best Indian dish I've ever had. I swapped yams and Japanese sweet potatoes for regular potatoes and it adds a touch of sweetness that beautifully complements the cayenne heat. Bumps up the nutrition a bit, too! Thanks for this wonderful new go-to dish 😋
Easy and incredibly delicious ❤️
Wow What a tasty dish .. I made this three times and each time I relished.. a real crowd pleaser … definitely my go to dish with guest . Thank you 🙏 Nadia god bless…
Wow this is truely awesome. One of my favourites of all time. Super simple and tasty. My toddler loved it! Thank you for another Stella recipe
Oh my gods, this dish is tha bomb!!!! It is soooooo tasty and easy to adapt. I added some frozen spinach and it worked perfectly! This one goes in the favourites list!!!
Loved it
One of the best I had.. I love this app.
This is one of my favourites, I think I made it at least 15 times already :D
Is there possibly a way to sub the whole coriander and cumin for ground? Thanks!!
This was delicious!! The flavors are just right, creamy but not at all heavy. Definitely making it again 🥰🥰
Loved this recipe! Creamy but not heavy! The coconut cream really made the dish for me.
This looks amazing! I'm going to try to make it.
I noticed from the pictures that the Aloo Matar sauce I guess? looks thicker than the video.
Any suggestions on how to achieve that consistency as well?
wow! delicious aloo matar recipe, you inspired me.
This is my and my partner's most favorite dish ever. It's just so creamy and nice and easy to adjust to our preferences. Thank you!
So flavourful and comforting! Cooking this recipe is a weekly occurence :) Thank you so much!
Just made this for my lunch and it was quick and delicious! I had all the ingredients and spices so it was easy to throw together after peeling the potatoes.
As a student first time in a foreign country, I absolutely had no idea what I am going to cook today. Then I remembered that you had a PUL website that you always mention.
It is an amazing website! I wanted to know what I could cook with Tomatoes and Potatoes (but didnt want any beans, had been eating them for the past two days xD), this recipe is what came up.
Turned out to be amazing! Will be enjoying this for the next two days.. Thank you for putting up this website and structuring it the way it is, will be referencing it a lot in the coming couple of years of my studies!
This is so delicious, there is no meal more cozy and warming than this, and it’s impressed everyone I’ve made it for!
I love this dish, my sister is truly the definition of a picky eater, so when she eats something and likes it, it is because it's delicious. She loves it and my whole family also.
So far, one of the most delicious and comforting vegan dishes I know. We eat this every 2-3 weeks. Tip: if you add puy lentils, the taste does not change, but you have extra protein.
Such a comforting dish! Thank you for being mindful to make recipes that are affordable for people using ingredients most people already have (without compromising on flavor or nutritional value). I love that about PUL!
STAPLE BUDGET MEAL!
This is now a staple recipe because it is so easy to swap out the vegetables with whatever I have on hand.
I live in a very dry climate so I found that I had to continue to add water several times because it started to stick to the pan and I didnt want to add oil. I also went heavier on the spices than what is listed because I like strong flavors but it is still yum if you follow the recipe.
This curry is so good! It’s also very budget friendly.
I’m not vegan and neither is my family, but we’ll absolutely be making this again!
Really great recipe! I've made it a few times (and currently simmering another batch) with a different tweak here and there after the first trial.
My husband was not a fan of the whole spices the first time (he has had a hard food item crack a tooth before so now anything like that puts him off) so I just use the ground versions in a higher quantity. I tend to double the spices in any Indian dish I make at home so I'm heavy handed on them in this recipe as well.. except the cayenne! (Several of us can't handle the heat so I barely add any)
I serve it with basmati or jasmine rice and homemade naan. Thanks for a great recipe that is now part of our regular rotation!
So, so yummy 😋
I swopped the potatoes for butternut pumpkin and it was delicious! It goes well with a good quality brown rice. I will definitely make it again.
I thought this was delicious but I do have one critique.
The automatic serving scale for this recipe is a little off in terms of ratios.
I halved the recipe, which I usually do with all of them on here, never have had a problem except this recipe.
In my opinion, it didnt provide enough liquid in the pot.
I added more liquid, tomato juice from the can and water but that took away from the flavors.
Overall it was a success but I don't necessarily agree with the conversions.
Will be making this again!
I made this tonight and it was such a hit. My wife said it is the best curry I have ever made, and I make curry way too much, so that is saying a lot. Incredible! It’s a new family favourite.
Heerlijk! Wij maken dit recept wekelijks. Bedankt!
I love this recipe. I've never tried this dish in any indian restaurant so I didn't know what to expect (but of course I knew it was going to be delicious because is a PUL recipe), and I loved it. My potatoes took more time to cook, maybe I cut them too big? But the result was super duper yummy!
I'm from India, so this dish is familiar to me.
My family and I usually have it with parotta (flatbread)
I made it last night, and everybody loved it! It has so much flavour and is just simply delicious.
This will absolutely become a regular dish in our house.
Thank you for sharing this recipe!
This was so AMAZING! There is so much flavor and warmth and goodness in this dish. Quickly becoming a weekly dinner in our house, along with many other PUL dishes of course :)
This is such a delicious recipe, my boyfriend and I loved it!
I am curious why the nutrition information lists 7 mg of cholesterol since cholesterol is only found in animal products? Thanks!
This has become a family favourite! I’m always cooking for my mum and I with Pick Up Limes recipes and we keep returning to this one :)
I love this dish! Thank you Pick Up Limes Team for all the wonderful recipes and tips you give. I've learned a lot about nutrition and cooking with you.
I tried a variation of this dish adding Broccoli (my fav) and tofu because I didn't have peas, and also went super delicious!
Can i put something instead the coriander seeds?
Autumn is here, the weather is chilly, this spicy and hot meal has made my day more beautiful. Thank you so much for this recipe, it was so incredibly tasty, the whole family loved it!
My family loved this dish. It's so wholesome yet easy to prepare. Sending lots of gratitudes from Malaysia <3
Such a fantastic and easy to make dish! Definitely one I'll make again!
This dish is absolutely PACKED with flavour and sooo incredibly delicious! I served with brown rice and added a wee bit of butter & some ground cumin to the rice before serving. Topped off with some coriander and ready to eat!
Literally next level good! A must try.
Very comforting and delicious meal ! I love the combination of the potatoes and peas !! The spices add a very interesting taste, too !
WOW wow! My mouth is on fire 🔥 Wish I read the earlier comments about the heat that this delicious curry brought. It was super simple to make, filling, and pact with delicious seasoning. Mine came out a little watery and I’m wondering if I cut the potatoes too small. Also, I love how that there’s left overs for the week.
Thank you!!
This is your best curry recipe. The coriander seeds give it such a delicious twist
About to meal prep this once again to enjoy throughout the week! We sprinkle some crispy tofu on top and it is divine. One of our (many) favourite recipes on this beautiful new website.
Thank you so much Sadia and the team for making plant-based eating an absolute joy. We make several of your recipes every week and we would be lost without you! Sending so much love and gratitude from the UK 💞
just finished eating this super tasty meal, indeed it was easy to make and I would definitely have it again. For me, it's a winter recipe, keep in mind that it' s quite spicy and the recommended amount of coconut cream seems barely enough to counter balance the heat. Still, a simple and fulfilling dish!
Simple, flavourful, and so filling. This dish is an absolute winner!
I'm so thankful to have stumbled across the PUL website four years ago. Sadia develops recipes that are delicious, healthy, and so easy to follow. We enjoy Sadia's recipes so much that my husband and I pretty much exclusively cook PUL meals for lunch and dinner every week. Sadia, thank you for creating an array of scrumptious vegan food. Sending you love and gratitude from Australia :)
I love this recipe! The taste is amazing and the descriptions and servings are perfect. Thank you PUL!
Oh wow! Lovely flavours; and I enjoyed the fragrance at each stage while cooking.
My family and I are obsessed with anything Indian so I'm always searching for new recipes to try out. This recipe is so good I've made it countless times!
This was so yummy! Honestly, didn't know I can cook this good ;)
Wow! This is super tasty. My dads favourite curry now. Xx
My partner for some reason loves potatoes. I made him this curry once and since then he asks for it every weekend. I must say, that I like it too. :-)
This is my favourite recipe EVER! I make this dish at least once per week and everyone in my household eats it up. I've always wanted to make curry as good as my local Indian place and I was never able to do it until I mastered this dish. Sadia, please, I'm begging you, I need more curry recipes like this one!
That looks incredible! I'll try it on the weekend 💞
this was so satisfying, warming, and delicious. a family favorite; will make again when the cold comes back around 🤍
Such a delicious recipe, PUL recipes never disappoint us :)
A lovely, creamy curry. We really enjoy scooping it up with naan :) thank you for another delicious recipe!
Thank you so much for this recipe! It is a life-saver for me now, when I cannot eat many things due to my semi-chemo MS treatment <3
This has been my #1 go-to curry recipe for months, I think I've made it like 20 times already! It's so so tasty and quick to whip up (not too much chopping involved). A few times I only had light coconut milk and it came out just as yummy, only a bit less thick. Thank you so much for your recipes, they're always perfect :) !
Upon my partner's request, I made this for dinner two nights ago and it was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Something that looks relatively simple (potatoes? peas?) but with the perfect combination of spices just makes it taste incredible. Especially convenient since these are ingredients we always have around the house anyway! Already bookmarked and can't wait to make it (...eat it) again :)
So dang good. This would’ve been perfect on a chilly winter day. Definitely going to make it again then!
What a delicious and nourishing meal! I only realized during the cooking process that I didn't have any frozen peas, so I used edamame instead. And I might leave out the cayenne pepper the next time because I personally found it a bit hot. Thank you so much for all the wonderful recipes!
