Masala to accompany Puris/Masala Dosa/Rotis

This is possibly the simplest curry that can ever be made!!

Potatoes: Cooked, 3 large, Crushed roughly. Make sure it has bite sized bits.

Onion: 1 large, Sliced. (Red Onion.)

Green Chillies: 3-4 Sliced (birds eye)

Ginger: 1 inch piece, chopped

Curry Leaves: a sprig

Mustard, Urad Dal, Red chilli: To temper

Turmeric: a pinch

Heat oil in a kadai, add the tempering ingredients and curry leaves.

When it splutters, add the green chilli, ginger and stir for a minute.

Now add the sliced Onion and salt and mix until the onions are cooked.

Add the turmeric, mix well and then add the potatoes. Mix well.

Now, add about a cup of water and adjust the consistency.

I make it a little thin for puris and rotis and of course, for Dosai it is thick.

Garnish with corriander leaves and enjoy!
