I have already told you about my love for potatoes…Once again I am telling you “I am a Potato Girl”..
I am delivering you another potato dish which has recently become amma’s favorite..One day I made Brinjal kulambu with potato podimas..As soon as i finished making it my sister’s started digging into it,I think mum went to some marriage function and she had food over there..Below is the conversation which we had..
I asked her “Amma..Taste this and tell me how it is”
Amma “What!!! My Tummy is totally full It can’t even take a single rice in”..
”Just taste that potato alone amma ,it came out really nice” – This is me
“See I telling you again and again right..I can’t” – Amma
“Ok..That’s fine..What for me you are missing one fine dish ”..I turned back to anusha and asked “Anu is it good” She said “Akka super…mmmmm”
Conversation stops here..After 10 mins..
Amma came slowly to the potatoes and took a huge bite…”mmmm..Wow..What all you put in that..Its really good..How you did it.”
Me and ma sister’s looked at her at the sametime..While she finished half of that bowl,For your information She didn’t stop at that alone..She took couple of spoonful of Brinjal kulambu and ate that too…
Amma…Love you..
