Yea !! potatoes are always a huge hit in my home and the good thing about them are they are so versatile and can be paired with a lot of different veggies for quick tasty side dishes and they can always be depended upon in a pinch.
This curry is very well liked by all my cousins and friends who have tasted it. I find it a great filling in a sandwich or in a wrap and also great to go with roti's
