Spicy Tangy Stir Fry Potato
A versatile and a universal favourite – Potato can be had as a snack, a meal or as an accompaniment. You can bake, fry, sauté or cook it in the spices of your choice.
Preparing breakfast can be challenging at times, and that’s when the good old potato comes handy. So this is what I cooked within 20 minutes just in time for breakfast.
By the way, if you have boiled potatoes from a day before they’ll come handy in this recipe.
