White Potato Fry is a softly prepared potato dish spiced with impactful seasonings & embellished with herbs & spices. This adaptable dish can be prepared for those fasting days & is an ideal meal for those veggie lovers.

Unlike the usual potato curry, this White Potato Fry is white in colour as the name states.

White Potato Fry Ingredients:

• 3 large potatoes
• 1 sprig thyme
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• ½ onion, slivered
• Salt to taste
• ½ teaspoon jeera (cumin) seeds
• ½ teaspoon fennel (soomph) seeds
• 1 teaspoon red chilli flakes
• 1 garlic clove
• 3 green chillies, chopped
• 1 teaspoon rosemary
• 1 teaspoon dried mixed herbs

Method:

1. 1. Firstly you will need to peel & rinse the potatoes.
   2. 
   3. Next, slice the potatoes so that they resemble an ovular shape.
   4. 
   5. Slice the potatoes by about an inch in thickness.
   6. 
   7. Thereafter, peel & sliver onions.
   8. 
   9. Rinse & chop green chillies.
   10. 
   11. Heat up the vegetable oil in a medium sized pot. When the oil is hot enough, drop in the onions, garlic clove, green chillies, thyme, red chilli flakes, jeera (cumin) seeds & fennel (soomph) seeds.
   12. 
   13. Mix well & allow to simmer until the onions are translucent.
   14. 
   15. Thereafter, drop in the sliced potatoes.
   16. 
   17. Mix well, coating the potatoes in all of the spices. Cover with the pot lid.
   18. 
   19. Add a little water if necessary, this will prevent the potatoes sticking to the surface of the pot.
   20. When the potatoes are almost soft, season with salt as per taste & add in the rosemary & dried mixed herbs.
   21. 
   22. Gently combine & allow for the potatoes to cook throughout.
   23. 
   24. When the potatoes are all soft, remove from the heat. I like to garnish my White Potato Fry with a little of red chilli flakes to give it some pop in colour.
   25. 
   26. 
   27. This dish can be refrigerated for up to a week.
   28.
