Potato masala process

Making of outer layer and suyam:

  1. Wash and soak raw rice, idly rice and whole black gram each separately for 6 hours or overnight.
  2. Transfer soaked black gram dal to a mixer grinder and grind them to a fine paste. Same way grind idly rice and raw rice to a smooth paste like we do for making idly. Transfer ground flour to a mixing bowl and add required salt, mix well.
  3. Batter consistency should be like idly batter which is slightly thick. Allow them to ferment overnight or until well fermented.
  4. Now dip potato masala in the fermented batter and fry them in hot oil over medium flame until they are slightly brown in color. Tasty potato masala suyam is ready.

Notes:

  • Batter consistency should be like of idly batter. If you think batter is very thick then you can add little water to make it perfect for dipping.
  • You can make this suyam with idly batter also.
  • You can make this potato masala ahead of time and make suyam when needed.
