Method

- Peel potatoes, cut them in half .

- Now cut the potato into thin slices.

- If you are making in large quantity or want to cook after sometime then, soak the potato slices in water to prevent them from turning black due to oxidation. (I personally do not soak them, instead I cut them as fast as I can before they turn black and immediately put in kadhai for cooking)

- In a deep kadhai, heat oil and add mustard seeds (rai). When mustard seeds starts to crackle add cumin seeds (jeera), chopped green chillies, hing (asafoetida), turmeric powder and potato slices. Mix well.

- Cover and cook potatoes for 5 minutes on a low flame. Stir occasionally.

- When potatoes are half cooked, add salt, sugar and red chilli powder.

- Mix well, cover and cook till potatoes are perfectly tender.

- Once cooked, add finely chopped coriander leaves.

- Batata Kachrya is ready.

- Serve with dal rice or chapati.
