Potato Bhaji finger chip style (Batatyachi Bhaji)
Potato must be the most favorite vegetable in every Marathi household. It’s also the quick savior when you don’t want to go out to buy veggies. Potato and crushed peanuts is the combination that works every single time…
This recipe comes in handy when it’s a school morning. But the dependable bai suddenly announces early morning that she is taking a leave! Potato to the rescue…
You can take your time steaming the potatoes or say ‘done’ as soon as they are cooked. It obviously tastes extra nice when you give it the time and care. But the quick version also gets you the kid’s praise.
Household Preferences
You can add some Goda / Kala masala that’s very quickly found at a Maharashtrian home. I prefer the simpler taste so I don’t.
Make it for upwaas
You can convert it to an upwaas item if you replace oil with ghee and don’t add mustard, asafoetida and turmeric to the tempering.
My son is very happy to pick off a few chips even before it goes into his lunch box. I could probably write the potato 100 ways article as easily as this simple bhaji. 😉 But let’s begin with this one here and now…
