Aps Notes:

Generally I make this for kids snackbox, making this early morning isn’t a easy task so I mix the masala to the cooked potatoes and keep it in the fridge. This way the potatoes turn tasty and morning hassle is reduced.

You can use  normal potatoes too but make sure not to overcook it and keep it rightly cooked. 

Add salt to taste as chat masala also has some salt in it.

Happy Cooking,

Till then,
