    When Monika decided to showcase Potatoes for this month's Microwave Easy Cooking Event, I planned that I should make atleast a couple of them for the event. Though I made a very quick Potato Roast, which I had sent for Konda's lunch, I couldn't make anything. When I suddenly realized that it was almost the end of the event deadline, I quickly wanted to make something. I took out the cookbook that came along with the microwave and flipped through it.

    I saw that there weren't that many Potato recipes that I could make. Then I saw this Khova Peas Curry. I had the leftover Khova that I used to make the Kesar Kulfi, so it was good that I get to use it in another new dish. Since the recipe ought to be more of a potato, I thought I should make a kofta and use the base. But seeing that I didn't have that many fresh peas, this dish can be called Potato as it had more Potato in it.

    Step by Step Recipe with pictures to make Khoya Aloo Matar at home:

    Ingredients Needed:Potatoes - 2 large
    Peas - Handful
    Tomatoes - 2 medium
    Salt to taste
    Khoya - 100 gms
    Cashew nuts - 10For the paste
    Onions - 2 medium
    Red chilis - 2
    Ginger - 2"

    Spice powders

    Red Chili powder -1  tsp
    Garam Masala - 1/2 tsp
    Cumin Powder - 1/2 tsp
    Turmeric powder a pinch

    How to make Khoya Aloo Matar:

    Before starting with the paste, make sharp marks with a knife on the potatoes and microwave the potatoes for 6 mins. Once done, soak in water, peel the outer skin.

    Meanwhile, make a paste of onions, red chilies, and ginger. Keep it aside.

    Microwave cashews, cubed potatoes, peas for 2 mins.

    Then in a microwave-safe bowl, add 2 tsp oil and the onion paste. Microwave for 6 mins.

    Next add the tomato puree, spice powders, micro for 2 mins. Once done, add 1 cup water and microwave for 6 mins.

    Then add the khoya, mix well. Micro for 2 mins. Finally add the cashew, potatoes, and peas. Micro for 3 mins.

    Serve hot with rotis.

    Will be back tomorrow with a quick roast.

      Khoya/khova gives richness to the curries...I just made this yesterday but without khoya, as i only use that when I have parties.

      Hi,
      Tried this today on stove top. Khova gives a different taste.I added cauliflower florets too.It was simple.This is something which we can make when we get bored with our regular curries where we use only tomato-onion.
