Ingredients

½ cup sago or sabudana

¼ cup peanut roasted and skinless

1 medium sized potato finely chopped

2 green chillies chopped

¼ tsp cumin seeds

¼ tsp asafoetida

½ tsp garlic flakes

2 tbsp of oil

Salt to taste

Coriander chopped for garnish

Lemon juice

Method

In a deep dish place sago and just about cover with water and leave to soak for 30 minutes. (to make sure its properly soaked the water should be completely soaked) You can add a little salt if you want this stage but make sure you don't add too much salt later.

Once your sago or sabudana is soaked, in a pan roast your peanuts and set aside to cool. Once peanuts are cool put in a mortar & pestle and crush roughly.

In a pan add oil, once oil has heated add cumin seeds and then garlic flakes. Add the chopped potato and allow to cook by adding very little water covered. Once you can cut through the potatoes; add the chopped green chilli and salt to taste.

Then add the sabudana and cook till done. You can tell that the sabudana is done when it goes transparent like.

Remove from heat and garnish with coriander and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Enjoy!
