Notes

Note-
1-Pressure cooking time depends on the size of potatoes and quality of mangodis.
2- If the mangodis are ready made then you can pressure cook or boil them before adding in the curry because sometimes ready made vadis have besan added in to it so they are not as soft as home made vadis as addition of besan makes them hard.
3-You can reduce the quantity of potatoes if you want to make it thinner ,but avoid making it too thick,as it taste best with a thin gravy,but you can adjust according to your taste.
4-Instead of making tomato puree you can also add chopped tomato,chili and ginger at step-6
