ಗೆಣಸಿನ ಸಾಗು | ಸಿಹಿ ಗೆಣಸಿನ ಸಾಗು |
This curry or sweet potato sagu is created by me ie… my own recipe with the previous basic knowledge of what all ingredients would go well along with sweet potato.
It turned out to be an awesome accompaniment. It goes well with any type of roti, rotti, poori, chapati, paratha and rice as well.
During winter it is an apt dish as we get quality sweet potatoes and also spices like pepper powder, cumin seeds are used more due to the cold weather, so good for health and this is a tasty dish as well.
NOTE: Also find the recipe of Ragi / Finger millet / Nachni flour Rotti on this blog
