1 tsp oil
I sprig curry leaves
Salt to taste

Method:

Boil the potatoes , skin and mash well.
Add in the asafoetida powder, finely chopped ginger
Green chillies, onions, salt and coriander leaves.
Mix well and add in the curds.
Now heat a pan with the oil. Add in the mustard seeds.
When they splutter add in the urad dal and curry leaves.
