- For extra flavor, add a pinch of garam masala or cumin powder along with the turmeric.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, you can pass the cooked potatoes through a sieve before adding them to the pan.
- Adjust the amount of green chilies to control the spice level according to your preference.
- For a richer flavor, use ghee (clarified butter) instead of vegetable oil.
