Hash Browns - shredded

Devil is in the details on this one. Wash, peel and grate russet potatoes with a large grater. Do not rinse. Put in a kitchen towel and squeeze. Cover with towel and microwave for two minutes. Add salt, pepper. Heat oil + ghee in a shallow pan, add potatoes, flatten with spatula, and cook on medium high heat for two minutes on each side.  https://www.seriouseats.com/shredded-hash-browns-recipe 

Nastani Sev

 Baby M. loves her junk food, so here goes:  Sieve together about 2 cups of besan, add salt to taste, abt half a tsp turmeric, 1/2 tsp red chilli powder, 1/2 tsp kashmiri chilli powder. Heat oil in a kadhai. Add about 4-5 tbsp hot oil in the besan and mix with a spoon (the oil is hot). Then add water until you get a semi-soft dough (somewhere between a batter and dough). Now with the spoon, stir the batter/dough for a few minutes to aerate the dough slightly. Add to  a well oiled Sev machine, and make sev in oil on high heat. Fry on both sides for about 20-30 seconds each and remove on kitchen paper. Sprinkle black salt + kashmiri red chilli powder mix. Store in an airtight container once cool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RZ1Pkdx07U
