Kasuri Yam (Suran) Stir Fry

       
          If you have had enough of Aloo Methi, then prepare it the same way with Yam (Suran). It simply tastes yummy. It is perfect as a side dish with either rice or with chapattis / parathas. The addition of kasuri methi and chopped coriander stalks enhances the flavour and makes it more delicious & tasty.
