Thanks. Yogurt-potato combo really tastes good.
Shreya:
Gujarati and Maharastrian cuisines add little bit jaggery or sugar for taste in many recipes (though not all!) but if you do not care for sweetish taste, you can omit it or decide for yourself. Make sure yogurt is not too sour if you are not adding sjaggery at all.
Asha:
Yes. Potato & yogurt taste good together. Thanks.

Maya:
I think it will go very well with puris. Great idea!
it is nice. i wud like to ask can we use roasted gram flour instead of daliya with yoghurt?
Shaikh:
I think roasted besan would work ok instead of daliya powder. This is just my guess since I haven't used it. But if using, please make sure that no lumps remain while mixing with the yogurt.
