Potato Capsicum Fry

March 26, 2011 by Raksha Kamat

0 shares
It was Sankashtiย Chaturthi. This was a special one as it came on Tuesday and is well known as Angarkiย Chaturthi. Mom called up early morning to remind me that I should fast today or at least eat pure veg food.
She also told me that if ย I do this one successfully, it is equivalent to 21 Sankashthi’s. I have faith in Lord Ganesha, so I decided that I should do it. ย The day went well. But when the night came and we returned home from office, I went and checked my fridge as to what all veges are there. Normally I would cook the simple potato sabji. But this time I thought of preparing something unique. My imagination and the experiment turned out to be a very successful one. A great dish without onions and garlic. Check the recipe below.

Ingredients:
2 Potatoes
1 Capsicum
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
8-10 curry leaves
1/2 tsp asafoetida
2 tablespoon oil
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp chilli powder
1 tsp lemon juice

Procedure:
Boil the potatoes using pressure cooker. Pressure cook for 4-5 whistles.
Let the potatoes cool down. After cooling, peel them off and chop into 1/2 – 1 inch pieces.
Cut the capsicum straight. Take off all the seeds.
In a kadai,heat oil.
Put in mustard seeds. When they flutter add cumin seeds.
Add asafoetida and curry leaves.
Add to this turmeric and chilly powder.
To this add the capsicum and fry continuously till capsicum turns brownish.
Now add chopped and boiled potatoes and fry.
Add salt to taste and fry thoroughly.

Add lemon juice and mix it well.
Serve it with rice, chapatis or phulkas.
