  3. Making the Potato Stuffing:
  4. Heat oil in a pan. Peel potatoes and mash them finely. When the oil gets hot, add the cumin seeds and asafoetida and saute for a few minutes.
  5. Now add ginger, green chillies, turmeric powder and coriander powder. Saute for 2 minutes. Add the potatoes, salt, mango powder, red chilli powder and green coriander. Mix it well. Keep the stuffing aside.

  12. In a bowl, combine the chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala with 3 tablespoons of water and mix well. Keep aside.
  13. Heat the ghee in a pan. Add the cloves, bay leaves, cumin seeds, green chillies and asafoetida. When the cumin seeds crackle, add the prepared masala paste and saute for 2 minutes.
  14. Add the cooked dals, amchur, tamarind pulp and salt. Simmer for 5 to 7 minutes. Adjust the consistency of the dal before serving and if required, add some water.
  15. Making Churma:
