    Zucchini aloo sabzi is an Indian style dry curry (stir fry) recipe with Zucchini, potatoes, and spices.

    This recipe is a simple stir fry with potatoes, Zucchini, and Indian spices which will be good as a side with dal or sambar.

    You can even eat this zucchini potato as a salad if you want something light. Top this curry with a handful of nuts and your potato zucchini salad is ready. Reduce salt and red chili powder if you want to have this curry as a salad.

    Let's begin making zucchini potato curry recipe:

    • Peel and cut potatoes into equal-sized cubes. (Around 1-inch cubes)
    • Roast sesame seeds and cumin seeds till they are slightly brown and turn aromatic. Take them out and pound into a rough powder.
    • In the same pan, add oil, potato cubes, and a little salt.
    • Let them cook till they are almost done. It took around 10 minutes for me and it depends on the stove flame and potato cubes size.
    • While potatoes are being cooked, cut Zucchini into ¼th-inch cubes or half-circle slices.
    • To these cooked potatoes, add chopped Zucchini.
    • Let the zucchini cook on medium flame. It will take another 6 or 7 minutes.
    • Now add roasted sesame seeds powder, cumin powder, red chili powder, raw mango powder (amchoor powder), turmeric powder, and salt.
    • Mix it well and let it cook for a couple of more minutes. Zucchini potato curry is ready to serve!

    Recipe Notes and variations:

    • You can use green Zucchini or yellow Zucchini or both.
    • Instead of potato cubes, I sometimes make this zucchini curry with baby potatoes as well. 
    • Make sure to cook potatoes completely before adding zucchini, as Zucchini will take less time to cook.
    • Instead of sesame seeds, you can use peanut powder or almond powder, or dry coconut powder in this curry.
    • As this is a dry curry, goes well with sambar rice or curd rice.
