Crispy potatoes go well with many varieties of rice.
As I had mentioned earlier, potato is one of my favorite vegetables. The beauty of potatoes is that they can be cooked in so many ways, and each method brings out a superb dish! I have already posted Potato Tikka, Potato Wedges, Potato Chips, Potato Fry, but this version of urulaikizhangu podi curry is a no-onion no-garlic Tamil brahmin style preparation. It is one of the quickest ways to prepare Potatoes. My mother-in-law prepares a different version of this, by adding okra as well.
Potato podi curry
We all love potatoes and among all the potato dishes I make this urulaikizhangu podi curry is my kids' favorite. My son calls it mini french fries potatoes. No need to pressure cook the potatoes for these recipes. Chop them small and slow roast. Little besan flour gives an amazing flavor to this kara curry recipe. It is a Signature Tamil brahmin style potato podi, Kari, without onion/ garlic.
Can I skip Besan flour?
Besan flour gives a special taste and texture to the curry. Skipping besan flour might alter the taste. You can also use the flour instead of began flour. Rice flour Kalpana potato kara Kari gives the crispness too but I like the flavor with besan flour.
Can I add onion/ garlic to the urulaikizhangu podi curry?
I have made it Tamil brahmin Malayan potato kara curry style but you can saute onions and garlic and prepare the potato varuval.
Can I add tempering?
Yes traditionally potato podi curry is prepared with tempting but my kids prefer without tempering hence I skipped it.
How long it will take for the potatoes to cook?
For cast iron cooking always slow roast in low- medium flame. Depending on the potatoes and also the crispness you prefer the roasting time slightly varies.
Can I pressure cook potatoes and prepare Kari?
Yes but taste but nightly vary. Slow roasted potatoes taste the best.
Can I add besan flour initially?
No always add vegan flour after 5 minutes as potatoes would have been 3/4 the cooked by that time

Notes
- Adjust the spice according to your taste
- Chop the potatoes into small sizes preferable into cubes
- I prefer peeling the skin but that's optional
- Potatoes might turn brown if not used immediately so If you cut potatoes in prior soak them in water till you use and make sure you drain the water before making poriyal
- Adjust the spice according to your taste
- You can add the tempering
- Asafoetida helps for digestion don't skip it
