  • 3-4 T. oil

Directions
  1. Peel the potatoes, prick them with a fork and boil them in salted water until cooked but firm. Drain the water and keep the potatoes aside. You can leave the skins on if you like, so much nutrition is just there.

Next add the kasoori methi and fry again for a few minutes. Now add the tomato puree and fry till the oil separates.

These sound delicious! Thank you, Dee. 55555


I like the sound of this and will try. Note - Don't add fenugreek if you're having this as a late night snack - it fries the brain!! I'd substitute cardamom pods (2-3).

Swap fenugreek for 2-3 cardamom pods if eating late (fenugreek keeps the brain active!).
