Today I am here with a tried and tested easy recipe of very famous banglore MTR ( Mavalli Tiffin Rooms ) resturant style Potato saagu….. 

I got an opportunity to learn this from a foodie friend from a food group ,I was very happy seeing it as i have tasted MTR saagu and love it very much ,it tastes yum, its in the form of semidry with balanced taste….. I planned it very next day for breakfast along with pooris…

And result was just similar to that of MTR style and delicious yet the same time

Please give it a try ,it’s very easy and quici8k to make and enjoy with poori or rawa idli
