Yam Fry

Here we are in the Third Week of Blogging Marathon # 18. And my choice is dry sautes. I am a big fan off kootu and curries in Indian cuisine be it north indian or south indian cuisines. But at times we need to have dry subzis or dry curries to accompany our thali or daily meals. There are some dry sautes which are very close to my heart, meaning I like to make them as well as eat them. I will be presenting three such dishes this week. Do check what my fellow bloggers are cooking this week

Ingredients:

Yam - 200 gm

Red chili powder - 2 tbsp

Coriander Powder - 1 tbsp

Turmeric Powder - 1tsp

Salt - to taste

Tempering - oil, mustard seeds and curry leaves

Method:

Cut Yam into 1 inch cube pieces and cook till it is 3/4th done

Remove from water and let it rest for some 10 minutes

Add the spice powders along with salt to the boiled yam and mix well

Ensure that all the yam cubes are coated with the spice powder mixture

Marinate this for about 20 minutes

After 20 minutes add oil in a frying pan

When the oil is hot add mustard seeds and curry leaves

After the sputtering of mustard seeds are done , add the marinated yam and saute well 

Saute the yam in medium or slow flame to get the right texture and roasted yam
