Notes
1. If you don’t like spiciness reduce the amount of dried red chili flakes.
2. I didn’t use coconut milk. If you like coconut milk you can use that instead of water.
3. Boil the potatoes well enough, so that you can mash them easily. I used a non-electric pressure cooker and leave the potatoes to boil until 6 whistles.
