  1. Hey Fauzia,
    Love all your recipes.
    Just to confirm, is it better to boil the potato before dicing them or to dice the potato and then boil?
    Thanks!

    1. Hi Hina and thank you! Either way works, but I find it easier to peel, chop then boil the potatoes. They get done faster (coz they are tinier) and tend to hold their shape more neatly.
