I know it must look like a Potato theme, rather than a Dry Vegetable Sautes. I went with the logic that everybody loves potatoes and having it on the menu made things easy for me, as if other vegetables were not liked, atleast they had the potato to fall back.
This happened with the Onam Kerala Sadya Feast I prepared. Though I read that Potato Thoran is not traditionally included in the Ona Sadya, I thought it will help to have this served too. Trust me, it surely helped. The Avarakkai Thoran that was planned, is not my Hubby dear's favorite vegetable. So he was happy getting a potato instead.
While I do love the Indian Board Beans, I enjoyed this potato thoran as well, especially since I added the quintessential coconut green chili paste to this as well. Talk about globalization, and that paste was globally present in all the dishes that day. And of course we all enjoyed it so much!
Talking about festival specials, these Thatta Payiru Vadai is on serving too!
