- Heat a kadai with oil and temper mustard seeds,cumin seeds & urad dal.Add curry leaves & hing.After the dal turns golden brown,saute the onions till transparent.
- Then add the masala coated potato cubes.Saute in low to medium flame till u get nice aroma from it and potato gets roasted nicely.Add 1/2 tbsp of oil the middle while roasting if u feel the mixture is dry.Do not cover n roast it.

Note
- For variations,u can use raw banana or brinjal in place of potato but cook them in prior without losing its shape.
- U can also 3 cloves of garlic along with onions while grinding.That gives a nice masala smell.
- You can also garnish with finely chopped coriander leaves & squeeze lemon juice if u wish.
