Appalam Kootu

    This was one of my BIG most favorite dish among my mom's preparation. The best part of this was, i love the appalam/pappad which was completely soaked in the bengal gram kootu. Whenever my mom prepares this dish, am the only person who takes empty all the soaked appalam and leave it as plain bengal gram kootu :P But some point of time, dont know why she stopped preparing (may be am eating all the appalam without leaving it for others :P) But, after loooooooooong gap me somehow recollected the recipe and prepared it for our lunch time and now its for your views.

Diced Potato 1/2 cup
