BATATA SONGH

Batata songh  is one of the   favourite  dishes  of  all Konkani s. Batata  means  potatoes. This dish is  very spicy . I  learnt to cook this dish from my Amma,  this dish is  prepared with lots of red chilly and tamarind  paste.

This dish is a combination of spicy red chilly and sournes of tamarind pulp.  It tastes too good with rice and dalithoy .  Its very good combination  with neer  dosa (paan polo) also.

Try this once,  you will never forget the  taste.
