The easiest way to make my daughter smile and love her lunch is this very basic potato fry.
 
All it needs are a couple of chopped potatoes, Rub some oil, turmeric powder, chilly powder, coriander powder and salt on them.
 
Cook covered on a low flame.
Once you realize its beginning to caramelize, open and stir it up.
Let it cook a little more uncovered but still on low flame.
 
Its ready when you are sure the potatoes are cooked.
