POTATO FRY – Urulai kilangu Varuval

Potato is very common in every household all around the world. Today I am posting a easy and tasty South Indian Potato Fry recipe. I am adding tomato to this which makes this recipe a little bit tangy in taste. Usually potato fry is made either by shallow frying   or deep frying the potato. But this recipe needs very less oil since we use boiled potato.

SERVING SUGGESTION :

• Serve with any variety rice.
• Serve with Sambar, Rasam or Curd rice.
