Hai Guys..I can't wait to share this recipe with you all, because of its deliciousness. It was unbelievably yummy. The five spices which i added gave it a very unique flavour and taste to it. The onions in this turned so sweet and soft and it was amazing. You all know how much i love potatoes, this has become one of my latest favorite now.
There is no master spice powders in this recipe, there is only some turmeric powder for its golden colour. The spicyness comes from the green chillies and all other flavours comes from the panch phoron spice mix.
I am stressing you guys again to make that wonderful spice mix again and keep it in your store cupboard, if you didn't make it from my dal recipe. That spice is a wonderful one to have around because you can add it to anything you like. Some of my suggestions are chicken, cauliflower and so on..Bengali's even have powdered form of this spice which they add to so many of their signature recipes.
I guess you can tell the taste of this potato dish from the look of it, I strongly recommend you to try this immediately. I served this with my panch phoron dal and it was like heaven. So give this a try and let me know how it turned out for you.
