This is one of the simplest  and a favourite recipe in our family. Best accompaniment for variety rice, sambar rice and curd rice!

Garlic – 6 to 7 cloves (crushed)
Red chilli powder - 1 ½ tsp (Adjust according to your spice level)
Turmeric powder – ½ tsp

Directions

Pressure cook the potatoes until it becomes soft but firm and allow it to cool.  Peel the skin and cut into small sized cubes.

Beat garlic with a rolling pin to crush it slightly.

Heat oil and season it with curryleaves and fry garlic for 1 minute.

Add spice powders, salt and mix it in low flame.  Add the chopped potatoes to the spice mix.

Add the cubed potatoes; mix till the masala coats well (don’t over mix the potatoes, there is a chance of them getting mashed up).

Cook on low flame for 10 to 15 minutes till becomes dry and potatoes get roasted.
