Method:
Wash and peel the potatoes and cut them into small bite size cubes. Spread them in a microwave proof plate or bowl and steam them for 2-4 min by stirring in between. By doing this we require little oil.(Again the time may vary depending on the Microwaves).
Simultaneously, heat a pan with oil and add the seasoning and then chopped onion. When the onion turns tender, add the steamed potato and stir in between for 3-4 minutes.




Finally sprinkle the coconut powder and remove from the fire.


Serve with daal and warm rice


Note: Alternatively, you can add the potato cubes to the seasoning and fry them, which will take a bit more time to cook.
