Potato – 5(3 small and 2 big)

- Whil cooking,mash with the laddle.Allow it to get nicely blended when it all comes together as a mass to a semi thick consistency,switch off.
Your potato masala is ready now. You can pair with pooris or use the masal for masala dosai.
My Notes:
- If you prefer you can add a tsp of gram flour to make the masal thick.
- You can also add a tsp of finely chopped ginger while tempering. It not only enhances the flavour it also helps for digestion and gastric issues.
- You can skip tomato and add veggies like peas, carrot etc.
- Adjust water quantity according to the thickness of the curry.
