Batatyachi bhaji/potato bhaji(shivrag)

Batayachi shivrag bhaji/Aloo subzi..

Shivrag means no onion ,ginger and garlic.This is the most simple version of potato bhaji/subzi. It is cooked mostly during fast... festivals like chaturthi ... Diwali padwa...and holy functions @home or temples...
Rather than this ,this is the most favourite bhaji of  all ..specially kids..

Ingredients:-
2 big potatoes(boiled)
2 green chillies .very finely chopped
Corriander leaves. .  Very finely  chopped
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
Few frigs of curry leaves
1/2 tsp cummin seeds
Salt as per the taste
Pinch of hing (preferably khada hing)
Pinch or two turmeric powder
Lil water
1 tbsp  veg oil

Method:-
Peelout potato skin and chopped into small cubes.
Heat 1tbsp of vegetable oil in a pan
 Add mustard seeds and hing.. cover the pan with the lid.
When u hear mustard seeds crackling add cummin seeds. Curry leaves and green chillies... turmeric powder....  add lil water and salt as per  the taste.
Finally add chopped potatoes and half of the corriander ..mix well. And cover the lid for 5 min on lower flame.
Put off the flame and  garnish with coŕriander and serve hot with Puris Rotis ..or Pav(bread buns)

Tips :-  Always boil potatoes  half n hour  before.. so that the steam is released completely ...  and can be cutted into cubes properly ..otherwise sometimes potatoes remains harder or  become over soft..

This leftover subzi can be used for stuffing bread buns..making paratha .. or wadas

 Can be aďded with peas curry .to make it mix bhaji  to relish with Pav/bread buns.
