Bangaladumpa Vepudu ~ Potato Fry (2)
Potato stir fry in all its variations never disappoints. I am especially enamored by this particular stir fry (I could eat it every day and still never get enough). A second helping is always a must with this stir fry. Any left overs (which is rare), goes as a filling in my sandwich.

About This Recipe
Potato stir fry in all its variations never disappoints. I am especially enamored by this particular stir fry (I could eat it every day and still never get enough). A second helping is always a must with this stir fry. Any left overs (which is rare), goes as a filling in my sandwich.
The addition of onions which are caramalized provide crunch along with urad dal which is a vital ingredient in this recipe along with crushed garlic. The key is to serve it warm, when the flavor is mellow as you bite into the soft, crisp garlic-scented potato. Serve with rice and rasam OR rotis and dal.
