Pierce each potato 2-3 time with thin wooden toothpick. Heat oil in a
kadhai, fry potatoes on medium heat until floating on top and golden
brown in color. Drain excess oil and keep aside. To the dahi, add salt,
besan and 1 cup water. Whisk well, until smooth and lump-free. Reheat

elaichi and fry for a minute. Remove from flame, allow to cool slightly
and then pour into the dahi, stirred continuously. Return to flame and
bring to a boil, again stirring continuously. Add potatoes along with
soonth, saunf and ground masala. Cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes
or until the curry thickens. Serve hot accompanied by Boiled rice.
