By the way, if you feel Potatoes are fattening. And they are not good so just bust that myth, potatoes are not that bad. In fact, they are good for health the only thing is how you are eating it. In fact, One potato, about the size of your fist, has only 110 calories and is loaded with important nutrients like potassium, fiber, vitamin C, and complex carbohydrates. They are naturally fat-free, cholesterol-free, and contain no sodium.

But, here we are making a sinfully, but tasty curry out of potatoes. sinfully because we are frying them. However, sometimes you really required to cheat. Don’t you?

How To Make It:

Simple five steps and you are done:

  • Boil potatoes and peel them.
  • Make easy curd gravy.
  • Add chopped spinach.
  • shallow fry potatoes and add to the gravy.
  • garnish and enjoy! so simple.

Furthermore, I am really a big green vegetable lover and want to try all the possible ways to cook it. today I am cooking it
with potatoes. spinach and potatoes make a very good combination and we often make it as a dry vegetable like bhurji but this time I am making it with a little difference ….instead of normally cut potatoes, I am using tandoori style baby potatoes in it. Try this exotic vegetable once and believe me it will be easily incorporated in your exotic party menu.

Finally,I would like to suggest you few more such simple to cook recipes from my blog i am sure you will like it.
