Ingredients
For making potato-dried fenugreek leaves, you need:

The only problem with boiled potatoes is the lack of texture and consistency after the boil and may not end up crispy potatoes.
Fenugreek Leaves: Few - this dried herb adds a distinctive flavour that makes this recipe unique.
Spices: To taste - salt, pepper, turmeric (optional gives a yellowish colour) and mixed whole spices powder (garam masala).

Some Tips N Tricks
- Make sure you cut every potato slice of the same thickness. It should not be thick or thinner.
- Avoid using boiled potatoes as they vary in consistency and texture and may not end up in a crispy potato recipe.

- Wait to add fenugreek leaves. Add in the last when potatoes are fully tender otherwise, fenugreek leaves will burn and taste bitter.
- Serve warm as the potatoes will soften over time as they cool.
- If you have a cast-iron skillet, make use of it for this potato dry fenugreek. The result will be the best crispy potato recipe you will ever try.
