Potato is everybody’s favourite in my family. This baby potato fry is an easy and tasty side dish. It goes well with rice, roti, poori & even bread. There are many methods of making baby potato fry and this is one among my ways of making it. Our all time favourite is this Baby Potato Roast made with sambar powder.

Now to the recipe…

Tips:

  1. U can alternatively cook the baby potatoes in a pressure cooker for 1 whistle.
  2. Make sure to roast the potatoes and then add the coarsely ground powder, otherwise the masala will get burnt.
  3. U can add finely chopped onions too after tempering with mustard and curry leaves.
  4. U can use normal potatoes too.
