Notes

I do not have coconut when I was making this roast, Even though it tasted too good. If you want to avoid coconut you can very well try. Adjust the spiciness as per family need. Sauté the mixture till raw smell goes, then add the potato , otherwise it wont get proper roasting. Suggestion If you do not have baby potato you can also try with ordinary potato. Cut in to small cubes, and boil it. I never suggest this recipe for busy week days. If you are using baby potatoes it is time consuming. You can also try with gingelly oil, it definitely brings out lot of flavors, taste change too.
