Fresh Badam Alu (বাদাম আলু)

Badam Alu (বাদাম আলু) is a special variety of potato, cherished for its small size, nutty flavour, and slightly firmer texture compared to regular potatoes. The name "Badam Alu" literally translates to “Peanut Potato”, most likely due to its unique shape, size, or subtle taste resemblance to peanuts (বাদাম).

At Oi Food, we bring you fresh, carefully selected Badam Alu, sourced directly from trusted growers and delivered to your doorstep in Siliguri.

Why Badam Alu is Special

• Perfect for festive or special preparations where ordinary potatoes cannot give the same taste or appearance.
