Pin It

We are enjoying the showers here and the climate is so chill that our winters wears are already out. Easy and comforting food has been our daily routine these. I've already posted a different version of potato curry but this potato fry is mittus most fav. This is a very easy and quick version of potato fry.

Easy Potato Fry Recipe

• Potatoes - 2
• Sambar powder - 1/2 tsp
• Chilli powder - 1/4 tsp
• Garam masala powder - a generous pinch(optional)
• Salt - to taste

To temper:

• Mustard Seeds - 1/2 tsp
• Jeera - 1/2 tsp
• Curry leaves - few
• Oil - 2 tsp

Method:

1. Pressure cook potatoes until soft say for about 3-4 whistles. Peel of the skin and cut into tiny pieces and keep aside.
2. Heat oil in a pan(preferably non-stick), add mustard seeds, jeera - allow it to crackle. Add curry leaves and fry.
3. Then add the cooked potatoes, sambar, powder, chilli powder, garam masala powder and salt. Give a stir and fry until the potatoes are crisp and fried well. Switch off.

My Notes:

• You can also add a handful onions while frying
• While tempering you can add urad dhal and even replace jeera with fennel seeds(sombu)
• The advantage of using a nonstick kadai is that even if you add less oil the veggies get roasted well.
