Nanometric potato (Solanum tuberosum) food powder was synthesised by an eco-friendly approach, using high-energy ball mill and kitchen-based mixer grinder. A portion of the grounded powder was labelled as 0 hours, after which the potato powder was subjected to the ball mill equipment for time interval of 2.5 hr, 5 hr and 7.5 hr respectively. Optical properties of superfine potato powder include changes in the colour from dark grey to lightest grey which is due to characteristic changes in physical properties and crystal structure occurring due to transition of electrons. The average crystallite size of 12.53nm of the synthesised material was confirmed by HRTEM. FTIR measurements reveal a slight shift in wave number position,
