Recipe Notes

 

  • Potatoes have high starch which tends to make them sticky or mushy when they are overcooked.

  • To give a fine look to our recipe either use a chopper or manually slice them into even cubes.

  • We can even slice them one day before and put them in salt water and refrigerate them to make them on next day morning.

  • We add both green chillies and red chilli powder. Based on your spiciness adjust them. If you like to have a reddish texture we can even add Kashmiri red chilli powder.
