These go very well with theplas.I just love this combination. Potatoes are a favourite at our place.This dish is cooked on a low flame without using any water.I think thats the reason its so perfect as a travel food.

Ingredients:

2 large potatoes,peeled and diced
1 green chilli
A pinch of hing
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp fennel seeds
1/4 tsp tumeric powder
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
1 tsp dhaniya-jeera powder
1 tsp sugar
salt to taste
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 or 3 curry leaves
2 tbsp oil

Method:

Heat oil in a pan.Add mustard seeds.When they splatter add cumin seeds and fennel seeds.

Then add hing,tumeric powder,red chilli powder,green chilli,curry leaves and dhaniya jeera powder.

Add the potatoes ,salt,sugar and lemon juice and mix very well.

Cover and cook on low flame till potatoes are cooked.Stir at regular intervals so that the potatoes dont stick to the pan

Serve hot.
