- Add all the masalas pastes, salt and sugar to taste to the pan.
- Stir well and fry for several minutes, sprinkling water as necessary.
- Continue stirring and fry until the masala changes colour.
- Add one cup of water, stir and add the boiled enchor and the potatoes.
- Simmer gently until the potatoes and enchor are both cooked and there is a small amount of gravy in the pan.
- In a separate pan or kerahi, heat the tablespoon of ghee. Add the bay leaves and whole cumin seeds.
- Stir fry until the masala stops spluttering.
- Pour onto enchor dalna. Stir well.
