Glad u like it. I love to eat this by itself, but its great with Indian flatbread - roti. But tell you what's even better? Try eating it will baked/fried potato chips - the spicy potatoes and crispness are a great combination
P.S. - Since your name says "healthier kitchen" I doubt you will opt for the second :)"
Thank you!
