Baby Potato Mint Fry




Ingredients :

Baby Potatoes - 3/4 kg boiled and peeled
Fresh Mint Leaves - 2 cups washed
Onions - 3 medium finely chopped
Oil - 3 tbsp
Salt to taste
Chilli powder to taste

For tempering:

Mustard Seeds - 1 tsp
Urad Dal - 2 tsp
Curry Leaves - 4 to 5

Method


  1. Heat the oil in a kadai.
  2. When its hot enough add the mustard seeds. When they crackle add the urad dal and the curry leaves and roast till golden brown.
  3. Add the finely chopped onions and roast till they are translucent.
  4. Roughly chop the mint leaves with scissors and add to the mixture.
  5. In some time they would get nicely cooked and shrink.
  6. Add salt and chillipowder as per taste.
  7. Add the baby potatoes and blend well in the mixture.
  8. Leave it on a low heat for some time till the potatoes get roasted well.
  9. Serve hot.


We had this with rice and sambar. This would go well with pulao as well.

  3. Peeling all those potatoes will be a challenge, but worth the effort, I think!
