My kids are not a big fan of Potatoes. So Potato fry is very rare in our house hold. but whenever I visit Little India I always tempted to buy baby potatoes. I normally add them into korma or do Palak Potatoes. I have tried this at one of my friends house. It tasted good. So I have decided to try it out. I have grinded the onion and garlic but if you are ok you can skip the grinding.
Ingredients
Baby potatoes – 20
Onion – 1 (chopped finely)
Garlic – 7 (Chopped finely)
Turmeric powder – 1/4 teaspoon
Roasted gram dhal – 1 tablespoon
Red chilli powder – 1 teaspoon
Coriander powder – 1/2 teaspoon
Roasted Cumin powder – 1/2 teaspoon
Oil – 1 tablespoon
Mustard seeds – 1/4 teaspoon
Urad dhal – 1 teaspoon
Curry leaves – 10-15
Salt to taste
Method:
Cook the potatoes and remove the skin. Prick holes with fork. Keep it aside.
Heat the pan and add 1 teaspoon of oil. Fry garlic till it is brown in color. Add onion and fry till it is transparent. Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, coriander powder, roasted cumin powder and fry for 3 mins or till nice aroma released from masala powders. Add Roasted gram dhal to the fried onion and garlic.
When it cool down grind to smooth paste with very little water. Mix this with cooked potatoes and mix well.
Let it marinate it for 30 mins. Heat the rest of the oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds and let it pop. Add urad dhal and fry till they are brown in color. Add curry leaves and marinated potatoes. Fry it in low flame till the potatoes are crisp. Stir in regularly
Serve hot with rice
