Potato Masala with Animal Pooris

How to make Potato Masala (for Masala Dosa & Poori's)

             As I remember, the famous 'Poori-Masal' must have been one of the top selling combos in South Indian restaurants, in the 80's. Back then, there were just a few items on the menu and only those limited number of items would be available any where you go - I wonder how foodies like me, survived those periods, with so little to choose from.

       All said & done, the Poori-Masala is a hit in almost every family; but I had to think of a way to make it, a winner in my family, because my son would neither eat Poori's nor the Potato Masala. Thanks to Cookie Cutters! I was so glad, when he declined to share his Poori-Masala with us & ate something new, without making any funny faces.
