During my teen years, there have been protracted, deep-rooted consciousnesses of my own self, when I used to cook during the months of time offs! The months of dog days in Mangalore were humid and I was blithely settled in one corner of the city with my parents in a mellow, petite and snug home in the coastal city of Mangalore.
All along my juvenile years, cooking was by oneself an experimental venture and unlike today, there were absolutely no coercions to cook too. It was such an intermittent affair, that it used to be a lapse, sometimes, the flavours of whatever the outcome was, were too acute and I even don’t know what went into those experiments.
Of all the recipes or attempts to cook, I’d make these lovely fried potatoes which was taught to me by my sister in our early years of schooldays. Peeled and sliced potatoes are enamelled with the most elementary spices of all and bathed in semolina, just to be pan fried in ghee!
These are so enslaving, yet made in such a healthy way. This is incipiently a Goan recipe, called Batata Kaapa/Kaappa/Kaap and its likewise a favourite in Konkani homes in Mangalore. The nomenclature is a Konkani one, where ‘Batata’ connotes to ‘Potato’ and ‘Kaap’ is something that refers to anything that is fried. As a matter of fact, a similar recipe is even made in Maharashtra with eggplants.
These are remarkably uncomplicated to fashion and you can fascinate your children into making these alluring crusty potatoes that just goes so well with any kind of food, be it, the South Indian rasam or the Jeera Pulao.
