For preparing the wonderful stir fry, first cut the potatoes into one inch long pieces.
Add chilly powder, turmeric powder and salt to the sliced potatoes and keep for 5 minutes.
Heat oil in a pan. (Preferably nonstick pan with wide base so that we can reduce the amount of oil needed).
When the oil is hot, add the dry red chillies, curry leaves and the sliced shallots.
When the onion has become golden brown, add the marinated potatoes into the pan.
Stir in between so that it wont stick to the pan.
Cook in medium heat until the potatoes become crispy. Make sure that water has dried up completely.
:- Do not add water while cooking.
:- Very good combination with rice and kachiya moru. The crispy stir fry is a wonderful dish and this alone is enough to enjoy food. Both elders as well as kids love potatoes.
