Step by step instructions

Cut the potatoes in to small cubes. Try to be of equal sized so that they get cooked and fried evenly.

Soak the potatoes in cold water for about 5 minutes so that the starch goes off and they don’t stick together while frying and also gives the crispiness to the potatoes.

while the potatoes are soaking in water, we can fry the other ingredients. So in a pan, add oil and when oil is hot,

add mustard, cumin, urud dal and fennel seeds. adding fennel is purely optional, but it gives a nice flavor and taste to this potato fry.

fry them for a minutes in low flame. Now add in the curry leaves and fry again.

Once all the ingredients are fried well, we will add the soaked potatoes now

and saute them in oil well.

Now close it with a lid and cook for about 5 minutes. No need to add any water here, as the steam created inside the pan, is enough for the potatoes to cook. The potatoes gets cooked for about 50 to 60 % by this method.

All the other ingredients are added now. add the salt, chilli powder, coriander powder and the turmeric. If you are adding these powders before, they get stick together with the potatoes and they become as potato masala instead of potato fry.

Mix the potatoes with the masala well.

after mixing these with the masala, cover and cook again for about 5 min.

5 minutes, your quick potato fry is ready to be served.
