Ingredients:

1. Sabudana- 1 cup
2. Potato- 1
3. Curry leaf- 6 to 7
4. Cumin seed- 1/2 tsp
5. Mustard seed- 1/4 tsp
6. Black pepper powder- 1/2 tsp
7. Salt to taste
8. Cumin powder- 1/2 tsp
9. Red chilly powder- 1/2 tsp
10. Tomato- 1/2
11. Green chilly- 2
12. Oil

Procedure :

Soak the sabudana in water for 3 hours. After every one hour change the water. Boil the potato and peel the skin. Cut the potato in small pieces. Now heat a pan and add cumin and mustard seeds to it. After few seconds when a roasted smell of cumin will come, add 2 tbs oil to it. Add chopped curry leaf. Let them fry for a minute and add sliced green chilly. After a minute or two, add the small pieces of potato to the pan. Let the potatoes get fried properly. Sprinkle salt, pepper, cumin powder and red chilly powder. Turn the potato pieces carefully otherwise they will get mashed up. Add some more oil if needed. When the potato starts turning brown, add the drained sabudana and chopped tomato to the pan.

Keep stirring the sabudana or else it will stick to the bottom of the pan. Add some more salt if needed. Fry the sabudana in the masala for 4 to 5 minutes, keeping in mind that they should not stick to each other. When its done, serve it hot with your choice of chutney or pickle.I love to have it with a sweet and sour tamarind saunth.
