Potato kurma recipe for puri

July 10, 2012 by Raks Anand 50 Comments /

potato-kurma-for-puri
I make this kurma for puri or even some times for biryani / tomato rice / mild pulao. I wanted to post this recipe last week, but some how could not. Aj always prefers kurma for poori than the usual puri masala. This one is very similar to my mixed vegetable kurma. But all potato makes this one really yummy and flavourful!
