Whisk the yogurt with Kashmiri red chilli paste, cardamom powder, dry ginger powder and fennel powder. Heat mustard oil in a pan. Add clove powder and asafoetida. Add half a cup of water and salt and bring to a boil. Stir in the yogurt mixture and bring it to a boil. Add fried potatoes and cook till the potatoes absorb the gravy and oil floats on top. Serve hot, garnished with freshly roasted cumin powder and garam masala powder. Chef’s Tip: The process of pricking the potatoes makes them very light, if not, that means the pricking has not been proper or sufficient. Therefore it is a good idea to fry one potato and check. The size of the potato is also important, it should be a small size but should not be very small. BACK SUGGEST A RECIPE TOP |
