Potatoes are the easiest ones to cook and also one of the most favourite vegetables of all especially the kids. And it’s really hard to go wrong with recipes when we have potato as our ingredient. It will be tasty always. There are loads of ways to do potato roast. I usually have this potato sukka with roti or rasam. There are lots of dishes that we can do with potato. This one is my personal favourite. All the herbs and spices go well into the potato and makes it even more tastier. It is simple and tasty to eat having a lot of flavors going into our mouth 🙂 If you see, all the veggies i used are sliced and not chopped. Thats a secret of this dish 😉 i would say!
