This easy potato dish can be made in a jiffy and tastes sooo amazing!
You can serve them with almost anything or even as a side dish…i served them with puris…puris are just like rotis but deep fried ( need to do a video!!!)
Honestly if only i had someone to film me everyday in my kitchen or cud afford some fancy equipment which i could set up…any volunteers??
