Urulaikilangu Poriyal / Potato Fry

Potato Fry / Urulai kilangu Varuval the name it self tempts most of us . Best combo for rice items . I really don’t need any main dish to go with this yummy fry  . I can have as it is . But  people who like to reduce their weight should  keep a distance ,  but I believe having this weekly once not a problem  . This is my all time favourite side . This time I made it using sambar powder , usually I go with chilly and corriander powders  . Both are yummy . Click here to check my earlier post Potato Fry  using boiled potatoes. I am sure everyone love this simple easy fry and lets see the preparation ….

Notes :
  • If you don’t have home made sambar powder then you can substitute with  1/2 tsp corriander powder and chilli powder ( add up to your spice level ) .

  • Always keep the flame in medium low while frying else may get stick and easily burnt
