This month has been one of the busiest months for me.I'm a person who goes by plan for my routine.
Two days back, it was a busy morning and aloo parantha ( potato filled roti) was the plan for my kiddo's lunch box and I was already boiling the potatoes.
Slowly the boy peaked in and said "Amma , Could you please make something special for my box ?"
There it started and whipped up things together and there this potato pancake is born. To me , this is something similar to our aloo tiki but for him the cheese and little but with his favorite herbs made it special.
This makes a wonderful snack for kids party too and add little bit of chopped green chillies to pair with a cup of coffee ? tea for your cold evenings.

Unsalted Butter ................................... 2 tbsp
