Notes
- Because I serve this especially to my kids, I have not added chile powder to the potato mixture. You are free to add it along with curry powder.
- You can be very flexible with the type of spices you add.
- Also, feel free to add bell pepper or capsicum, corn, black beans, or spinach while preparing the filling.
