Potato Fry/Varuval

I will be more than happy, if I have just yogurt rice and potato fry. It is a very comforting food and any one new to cooking also can make it. There are different versions of potato fry, but this is my family's all time favorite. My kids just love them. You can just layer it between bread slices, place it in the sandwich maker and have it hot. It will be heavenly...

Here’s how to make it with step by step photos…

Potatoes	4 boiled and cubed

Green chillies	2 finely chopped
