Start with some besan - flour of garbanzo beans. Add some salt, spices, chili powder, ajvien. Add some water and mix into a paste to create the batter.
Chop some potatoes and spinach. Add to the batter and mix well. Usually you would really deep-fry this but you can use a pan and slightly less oil too. Drop in the mix in small chunks and let them cook. Ready to server with your favorite chutneys and sauces!

Tapatio aloo - HOT!
For some spicy breakfast potatoes - country style - start with potatoes cooked in the microwave. Break them into pieces. You ofcourse need some Tapatio sauce!
Break the potatoes - don't use a knife.
Add to a pan with some olive oil. Add salt, basil, parsley and some oregano.
Cook until nice and brown - this is a slow process so be patient. When ready add the tapatio, stir and serve!
Caution - can be very spicy.
