In a pan, heat the ghee on a medium flame. When the ghee melts, add the chopped potatoes and stir-fry them till they are cooked.
Add the cumin seeds and chopped green chillies to the potatoes.
Add the sago mixture and gently stir the mixture till all the ingredients are mixed well. Let it cook for sometime.
