YAM FRY

I've already posted a recipe with yam/chena kilangu and this is just another variation.

INGREDIENTS

Chena kilangu/ Yam - 250 gms

Sambhar pwd - 2 tbsp

Turmeric pwd - a pinch

Salt to taste

Oil - 2

METHOD

Cut the yam into small cubes.

Boil them in water with required salt and turmeric till its cooked about 70% (it should not get too soft or mashed)

Drain the water and cool the yam cubes (it should dry completely) 

In a pan add oil, yam cubes, sambhar pwd (you can use plain chili pwd too, in that case reduce the quantity to 1 tbsp) and salt.

Toss it and cook till crisp.

This dish goes well with sambhar sadham/rice, curd rice or as an evening snack all by itself.

NOTE

Yam should not be cooked completely while boiling.

A few curry leaves can be added while frying to enhance the flavour.
