    Sukhi Bhaji | Batata ni Sukhi Bhaji | Faral Potato Bhaji

    Published On October 7, 2021 by Aayushi Patel This Post May Contain Affiliate Links

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    Sukhi Bhaji is a quintessential potato fry made for faral in my home. The potatoes are boiled and then tempered in this recipe. The nuttiness from peanuts and the spice from ginger and green chillies make this dish absolutely delectable. Curry leaves add to the delicious aroma. While the secret flavors that add the zing to this dish are the lime juice and sugar.

    I am sure, reading this you are already tempted to make this bhaji. Sukhi Bhaji gets ready in under 30 mins, and is loved by all.

    Sukhi Bhaji

    This Potato Bhaji has been one of my favorite ways to make potatoes. Some families add extra sugar, but I like mine perfectly balanced. This Sukhi Bhaji recipe is mostly made for faral on fasting days. While some people eat red chili powder and some don't. You can totally skip adding red chili powder, if you don't eat it as a part of faral.

    I have other faral recipes on the blog and I thought you might be interested!!

    Is this Recipe Vegan and Gluten-Free?

    Yes, this recipe is both vegan and gluten-free.

    Which Type of Potatoes to Use for Faral Potato Bhaji?

    I prefer to use Golden Potatoes for this recipes. The Yokon golden Potatoes are less starchy, so they work perfectly for this recipe. The more starchy potatoes you use, there is a higher chance of Sukhi Bhaji turning into mashed potatoes.

    How to Boil The Potatoes?

    You can steam the potatoes, pressure cook the potatoes using the traditional pressure cooker or the Instant Pot.

    First step to Boil/ Steam the Potatoes is to thoroughly wash them, as we are going to cook them with the skin on.

    I personally prefer using my instant pot. Place the trivet in your Instant Pot. Place the Potatoes on top of trivet. Add 2 Cups of Water and Close the lid. Place the vent on the sealing side. Press pressure cook and let it cook for 6 minutes. Quick Pressure Release after 5 minutes. Open the Lid and check if the Potatoes are done. Once done add the potatoes to chilled ice cold water.

    If you prefer to use a traditional pressure cooker, Place the Potatoes in 6 lt Pressure Cooker. Add 2 Cups of Water. The Potatoes should be submerged in water. Cover the lid and cook for 4 whistles. Let the pressure release naturally. Once the cooker cools down, check if the potatoes are cooked. Once done add the potatoes to chilled ice cold water.

    What to do if the Potatoes are Over Cooked ?

    Sometimes it is hard to know the starch content of potatoes and this can happen to anybody. Once the potatoes are cool, peel them and chop them. If you feel that the potatoes might become mushy when tempered, Cut the potatoes and put them in the freezer for 10 mins.

    This step will help the potatoes retain its shape when cooked with the spices.

    Ingredients To Make Sukhi Bhaji

    Peanut Oil - I like to use Peanut Oil to make Sukhi bhaji. Traditionally in Gujarat, Groundnut/ Peanut Oil is used for most of the cooking, and it adds a very nutty warm taste to the food. But, if you prefer you can use any flavorless oil you like.

    Cumin Seeds - Cumin Seeds are used in this Bhaji for tempering and it's warm earthy aroma.

    Curry Leaves - Curry Leaves is an essential ingredient used to add a gorgeous aroma and its rustic taste in this recipe.

    Ginger and Green Chili - I am using whole green chilies and ginger & green chili paste in this recipe. It adds to the spice palate of this beautifully complimenting the sourness of lime juice and sweetness of sugar.

    Roasted Peanut Powder - This is how you can Roasted Peanut Powder. Lightly Roast the Raw Peanuts. Once they start to smell nutty, transfer them to a plate and let them cool down. Pulse the peanuts in your food processor, or mini high powered blender. Make sure are scrapping the sides every 10 -15 secs. This will ensure that you get finest peanut powder, without making it into peanut butter.

    Potatoes - You will need Boiled/ Steamed Yukon Gold Potatoes to make this recipe. The red potatoes work fine too.

    Lime Juice, Salt and Sugar - The three main Burst of Flavors that are going to compliment the rest of ingredients for this recipe. Try it for yourself. I promise you will fall in love with this recipe.

    Cilantro - Add lots and lots of freshly chopped cilantro to the Sukhi Bhaji. The freshness of cilantro adds very delicately refreshing notes to this recipe.

    • Sabr (patience) something that I never knew existed in me. Sabr is hard, yet it is beautiful. Beautiful when you get to tell your story. 

I never questioned once why me, when I went through losses, failed infertility treatments, bleeding disorders, and declining health. Until Inaaya was taken to the NICU to a completely different hospital. That’s when I asked why her. There is still so much that I haven’t shared. But, yet the only thing that helped me sail through everything was patience, my will to take one day at a time. Through all the downfalls, I have risen stronger, wiser, more confident, but most of all grateful for the ones who truly never left my side. 

I am glad I shared my infertility and IVF journey. It has helped so many of you and me. It is a true honor for me to read your stories, to see the photos to your miracle babies, and so many of you messaged me encouraging words with your own experiences with NICU. 

So if you are going through any hard times, things get better. Have faith in time. It is easy to say than do, but I have been there on the path of grief a couple of times now. Time will bring you the things you deserve. If you are grieving, time will help you teach to live with it, channel it. It might take some help from an outsider. I am proud of myself to seek therapy when I needed it. It has helped me channel my big emotions and very big feelings in the right way. I still have my days, when I spend all my time in bed, watching tv endlessly, eating in bed, tears rolling out for reasons I can’t explain. But I am have gotten  better since past couple years. My two girls, Luna and Inaaya never fail to show me love, kindness and grace.

    • Matar Paneer and Garam Garam Tandoori Roti! A meal that will always be my favorite and nostalgic. My mom used to make matar paneer, whenever I would invite my friends over, or she wants to treat us for a restaurant style dinner at home. This matar paneer is so easy to make and so delicious! 

📌Recipe📌

🌱 For the Curry Base

• 1 Tbsp Oil
• 1/2 Tsp Cumin Seeds
• 2 Green Cardamoms
• 1 Bay Leaf
• 1 Small Cinnamon Stick
• 1 Dried Red Chili
• 1 Medium Onion Sliced
• 1 Big RomaTomato Sliced
• 4-5 Garlic cloves chopped
• 1/2 Inch ginger chopped
• 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
• 1/2 Tsp Dhanyajeera Powder
• 1/4 Tsp Turmeric
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 8-10 Cashews

For The Curry

• 2 Tbsp Butter
• 1 Tsp Kashmiri Ted Chili Powder 
• 1 Tsp Salt
• 250 Gms Paneer Cubed
• 1/2 Cup Fresh/ Frozen Green Peas
• 1 Tsp Garam Masala
• 1 Tsp Crushed Kasuri Methi
• Adjust Salt if needed

📌 step by step📌

1. To a frying pan add oil, cumin seeds, dried red chili, green cardamom, bay leaf and cinnamon stick. Let the cumin seeds splutter and add sliced onions. 2. Saute the onions until they soften and add ginger garlic. Saute everything until golden brown. 
3. Add chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, dhanyajeera turmeric, salt and cashews. Cook until tomatoes soften. 
4. Let it cool down. Take the bay leaf out. And now add the prepared masala to a blender. Blend into a curry base. 
5. Add butter to the pan. To this add kashmiri red chili powder, and add the preppared curry base. Add splash of water to adjust the consistency. 
6. Add a tsp of sugar to balance the flavors. And adjust the salt. 
7. Let it cook for a minute and add cubed paneer and peas. I like to soak store bought paneer in hot water for 10-15 mins before adding it to the curries. This makes the paneer very soft. 
8. Add garam masala and kasuri methi. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and cream.
9. Serve hot!

    • Life isn’t easy on any of us. We all battle our own struggles and this was mine. Inaaya is my fierce and warrior child. She was worth the wait. She came into my life when I needed her the most. When I was broken to the point where healing didn’t seem to be in the horizon. She knows to constantly remind of the love I craved for years. Inaaya means gift of god. She is the light of our lives, she is my light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Someone has rightly said, a quote I go back to again and again. 

“You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option“ 

If you are in a similar situation as I was, know that there is light at the end of tunnel, and everything happens for a reason.

    Sabr (patience) something that I never knew existed in me. Sabr is hard, yet it is beautiful. Beautiful when you get to tell your story.

    I never questioned once why me, when I went through losses, failed infertility treatments, bleeding disorders, and declining health. Until Inaaya was taken to the NICU to a completely different hospital. That’s when I asked why her. There is still so much that I haven’t shared. But, yet the only thing that helped me sail through everything was patience, my will to take one day at a time. Through all the downfalls, I have risen stronger, wiser, more confident, but most of all grateful for the ones who truly never left my side.

    I am glad I shared my infertility and IVF journey. It has helped so many of you and me. It is a true honor for me to read your stories, to see the photos to your miracle babies, and so many of you messaged me encouraging words with your own experiences with NICU.

    So if you are going through any hard times, things get better. Have faith in time. It is easy to say than do, but I have been there on the path of grief a couple of times now. Time will bring you the things you deserve. If you are grieving, time will help you teach to live with it, channel it. It might take some help from an outsider. I am proud of myself to seek therapy when I needed it. It has helped me channel my big emotions and very big feelings in the right way. I still have my days, when I spend all my time in bed, watching tv endlessly, eating in bed, tears rolling out for reasons I can’t explain. But I am have gotten better since past couple years. My two girls, Luna and Inaaya never fail to show me love, kindness and grace.

    Matar Paneer and Garam Garam Tandoori Roti! A meal that will always be my favorite and nostalgic. My mom used to make matar paneer, whenever I would invite my friends over, or she wants to treat us for a restaurant style dinner at home. This matar paneer is so easy to make and so delicious!

    📌Recipe📌

    🌱 For the Curry Base

    • 1 Tbsp Oil
    • 1/2 Tsp Cumin Seeds
    • 2 Green Cardamoms
    • 1 Bay Leaf
    • 1 Small Cinnamon Stick
    • 1 Dried Red Chili
    • 1 Medium Onion Sliced
    • 1 Big RomaTomato Sliced
    • 4-5 Garlic cloves chopped
    • 1/2 Inch ginger chopped
    • 1 Tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
    • 1/2 Tsp Dhanyajeera Powder
    • 1/4 Tsp Turmeric
    • 1 Tsp Salt
    • 8-10 Cashews

    For The Curry

    • 2 Tbsp Butter
    • 1 Tsp Kashmiri Ted Chili Powder
    • 1 Tsp Salt
    • 250 Gms Paneer Cubed
    • 1/2 Cup Fresh/ Frozen Green Peas
    • 1 Tsp Garam Masala
    • 1 Tsp Crushed Kasuri Methi
    • Adjust Salt if needed

    📌 step by step📌

    1. To a frying pan add oil, cumin seeds, dried red chili, green cardamom, bay leaf and cinnamon stick. Let the cumin seeds splutter and add sliced onions. 2. Saute the onions until they soften and add ginger garlic. Saute everything until golden brown.
    3. Add chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, dhanyajeera turmeric, salt and cashews. Cook until tomatoes soften.
    4. Let it cool down. Take the bay leaf out. And now add the prepared masala to a blender. Blend into a curry base.
    5. Add butter to the pan. To this add kashmiri red chili powder, and add the preppared curry base. Add splash of water to adjust the consistency.
    6. Add a tsp of sugar to balance the flavors. And adjust the salt.
    7. Let it cook for a minute and add cubed paneer and peas. I like to soak store bought paneer in hot water for 10-15 mins before adding it to the curries. This makes the paneer very soft.
    8. Add garam masala and kasuri methi. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and cream.
    9. Serve hot!

    Life isn’t easy on any of us. We all battle our own struggles and this was mine. Inaaya is my fierce and warrior child. She was worth the wait. She came into my life when I needed her the most. When I was broken to the point where healing didn’t seem to be in the horizon. She knows to constantly remind of the love I craved for years. Inaaya means gift of god. She is the light of our lives, she is my light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Someone has rightly said, a quote I go back to again and again.

    “You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option“

    If you are in a similar situation as I was, know that there is light at the end of tunnel, and everything happens for a reason.
