Slices of joy

If you ask this writer about her comfort food, batatyachya kachrya (thin potato slices) is what she would reply. Having grown up in a Maharashtrian household, this sabzi is comfort food shared at its homely best. It is that rare dish that finds agreement across the family when mum runs out of ideas for a meal. Toss thinly sliced potatoes in oil, spice it with haldi, red chili powder, asafoetida, and salt. Add some chopped coriander to enhance the flavour and enjoy it with chapati, dal-chawal or khichdi.
