Bateta nu Shaak - Gujarati Spicy Potato Stir Fry

Bateta nu Shaak - Gujarati Spicy Potato Fry State of Gujarat is Western part of  India.  Gujarati cuisine had its own special unique taste from all over India. .Today's my recipe Bateta nu Saak - Potato Stir  Fry is a delicacy from Gujarat. This recipe  I learn from my Gujarati neighbour. I  reminisce fondly those days....Just within a week after my marriage I had to move from South India to Northern region, almost 2000 km away to a different state.Those days I didn't know ABCs of cooking. Luckily for me, my husband got ourselves placed in the  Campus quarters of the company where he was working and, I used to go and spend my time with my wonderful neighbour friends, and get adjusted to the new locale, people and culture. Those were the times when I was introduced to North Indian dishes,Gujarati dishes. This recipe is very simple and delicious and this yummy curry  goes well with Indian breads or  Plain Rice.
