Great recipe,however do try my version if you want to have a taste of andhra cooking. Peel, chop the potatoes into small cubes & immediately add to water to prevent them from blackening.Heat oil, add mustard,cumin seeds & let them crackle.Add curry leaves,chopped onions,chopped green chillies,peeled and lightly crushed garlic. Cover & fry on a medium flame till the onions are nicely transparent.Add the potatoes & mix well. Fry for a while (do not cover) till nicely cooked & fried till light brown. Add salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder & fry for a min.serve with rice.
