Simple Potato Curry

Potatoes are the most favorite at our place and i think this would be true at every body home . If you give my brother to eat potatoes all day along in different ways he loves them .He never gets tired of eating them .My husband too is a big fan of potatoes.
I am sure there are many ways for a potato curry .Here is mine version which is quite simple and easy to make .So enjoy this !!




Raw Materials Required

Potatoes -5 nos
Coconut -1 cup
Green Chilli -3-4
Mustard Seeds -1/2 tsp
Urdh dal -1/2 tsp
Hing a couple of pinches
Oil -2-3 tsp
Salt as per desire

Preparation Style
Cook the potatoes in the pressure cooker .Peel the skin and smash them and keep it separately.In a small kadai add oil and mustard seeds to it .Let it start to crack then add urdh dhal and hing to it .Add the smash potatoes and mix them well.

In the meantime grind the coconut and the green chilli by adding little water. Add the grinded paste to the potato and mix them well .After a couple of minutes add salt and mix them well and allow the potatoes to become little crispy in the bottom of the pan .Off them gas once done and serve them with hot rasam or sambhar. Enjoy
