Notes
- Some people add some sugar to the potol while coating with turmeric powder. My mom never did it and it tasted delicious! so I also follow the same
- Make sure to use mustard oil for frying! Mustard oil if the soul of Bengali cuisine 🙂 You can also fry the potols in pure mustard oil instead of mixing normal oil.
