- 1 cup tapioca soaked for 4 hours
- 1 medium potato finely diced (about 1 cup chopped)
- 3 tbsp ghee or oil
- 1 ½ tsp cumin seeds
- 1-2 green chilies chopped
- ½ tsp sugar
- salt to taste
Soak sabudana (tapioca) with just enough water to cover. Drain soaked tapioca in a colander for 10 minutes. Do not stir it too much as they will break.
Heat ghee in a skillet.
Add cumin seeds and green chilies. Cumin seeds should sizzle and pop.
Add potatoes and cook.
When potatoes are cooked, add tapioca, salt, sugar, and almond flour.
Cook for 2 minutes only. Gently stir, being careful not to break the sabudana pearls.
