It is widely made in and around Sikkim. It is very easy to prepare and gets ready in no time. Have been searching this recipe since ages and finally got the taste I have been craving for, hope you like it as well. Nepali aloo dum can be eaten as a side dish, starter or as a snack and also goes well with rice, roti, paratha, etc. Here goes the recipe.
