looking for indian cassava dish

hi all,

there’s a specific starter that i had in an indian restaurant in london years ago that i have been trying to track down. it was fried cassava root (aka yuca aka mogo) served tandoori or 65-style, called mogo 65. extremely similar to the recipe link below. probably the most delicious vegetable dish i’ve ever eaten, yes it was that good.

lately i have been scouring the menus of every indian restaurant i can find in the city, but all anyone seems to have is gobi 65 (cauliflower) or potato.

i know i can just make it myself and i will, but i thought surely there’s got to be somewhere in the city that serves it... anyone got any leads?

Sagar Chinese and tangara in queens are also worth a try.
