Potato – yum is the word. Potato fry as a side makes anything delicious. This easy recipe goes well with rice, roti. Without much oil, adding little chickpea flour (Gram flour) gives new flavor to the potato.

Method:

My Notes:
- Add ginger and garlic paste while adding potatoes to reduce gastric problems
- You can use chilli powder instead of sambhar powder
