Notes

  1. Choose small new potatoes of the same size that will cook fast. Do not go for tiny small potatoes, either!
  2. You can find curry leaves in Indian shops.
  3. By tossing, I mean moving the skillet to and fro so that the potatoes inside roll.
  4. The skillet or saucepan must have a firm, solid base that can maintain and distribute heat evenly.
