Lahsooni Aloo fry - Potato fry in garlic flavour.

Lahsooni aloo fry is my favorite from childhood.My grand mom from mom side used to make it and serve it with hot crispy paranthas in breakfast and I was loving to have it anytime. Let me tell you first that my grand mom was a great cook .She used to spend a lot of time in the kitchen making lots of mouth watering dishes .Till now I don't understand  how she cooked this much delicious food with very less ingredients .None of my aunties or uncles (children of grand mom), not even my mom can cook like her .As these days I prefer cooking by my own , I thought to give it a try in my kitchen .Below is the recipe.
