Gauranga Potatoes

Gauranga potatoes is one of my all time favourite Hare Krishna meals...
It is also always a hit with the kiddies, they love their ''Yellow Potatoes'' 

Slices of potato folded with herbs, butter, and sour cream and then baked to a golden brown. Not your "every day" fare! Irresistibly rich and delicious, yet effortless to prepare.

Gauranga means Golden
