Simple Potato

















I'm one for potato and I can be anyone for simple potato recipes. Inspired by Nags ,(cooking and me blog) for recipes, I got this simple recipe for making potato roast/subzi.

Cut 3 potatoes in small cubes
Chop onions,3 flakes garlic and little coriander leaves.

When oil heats,put some mustard seeds, onion ,garlic,1 and half tsp coriander powder, 1 and half tsp red chilli powder and half tsp turmeric powder. Don't let the masala fry. You can add chaat masala or chicken masala powder for a spicier taste. If you do, minimize or avoid the coriander powder. Add droplets of water and mix.
Keep mixing to avoid getting it burnt. Add salt in the end as potato can consume more salt.

Beef cutlets




Cooked beef – about 150 gm
If it is spicy enough you don’t need the following masalas (quantity according to above beef)
Red chilli powder – ½ tsp or 2 chillis
Garam masala – ½ tsp
Turmeric – a pinch
Coriander powder – ½ tsp
Add salt                            
Chop onion (not finely ) and make them golden brown in a pan of oil. Don't let it fry. Put beef and salt and masalas if reqd.
Mix for abt 5 min on low heat. Taste and see the beef if it the masalas have mixed well with it. Let it cool.
Boil and mash potato. These shouldn’t be very soft. If it is , add bread pieces so that the mixture tightens.
It is absolutely necessary that the potato veggie is devoid of excessive moisture while mixing in order for it to avoid from breaking apart while frying.

Make balls and flatten .

Dip in beaten egg which is mixed in salt and pinch of red chilli powder. Dip again in bread crumbs.


To check if oil is hot enough for frying – dip wooden spoon and if bubbles come quickly u can dip cutlets.
