Gach Alu (Air Potato/Yam)~ 500 Gm

Experience the authentic, earthy taste of tradition!

Gach Alu, also known as the Air Potato or Yam, is a unique and nutritious vegetable that grows on vines rather than underground. Distinct from regular potatoes, it offers a richer, starchier texture and a mild, nutty flavor that has made it a beloved staple in traditional South Asian kitchens.

Our Gach Alu is carefully selected for its firm texture and premium quality, bringing a wholesome, rustic touch to your daily meals.

Cooking Inspiration:

1.     Gach Alu Bharta: Boil, peel, and mash with mustard oil, green chilies, and onions for a classic, comforting side dish.

2.     Traditional Curries: Cube them and add to fish curries or mixed vegetable tarkari—they soak up spices beautifully!

3.     Roasted/Fried: Slice into rounds and shallow fry with turmeric and salt for a crunchy, satisfying snack.

4.     Meat Stews: Use Gach Alu in slow-cooked mutton or chicken stews for a thick, rich gravy.
