The perfect
potato sauté or urulla kizhangu mezhukkupratti as it is called in Malayalam
consist of thin long golden yellow juliennes of potato glistening with a light
coating of oil and a sprinkling of small black mustard seeds. The golden yellow
colour comes from using turmeric and chilli powder rather than the standard
green chillies in mezhukkupuratti. Crushed
button onions and garlic add amazing flavour along with lots of curry leaves.
