Aloo Mutter

This is a recipe which is like a quick fix side dish with roti or paratha. Very easy and tasty.Sometimes when i return from office i feel lazy to cook any special dish for dinner.Roti is a default item so i am always confused what to do about the accompaniments.At this time, aloo mutter is a real life saver...
Aloo is a readily available vegetable in almost every house,if u have some frozen green peas then there you go!
