A great side dish, can be a vegetarian main dish also. Has been served at tea time in India as a snack, too! Oil-free, more low-fat cooking with high flavor! :)

SPICY INDIAN POTATOES
I got this recipe from manjulaskitchen.com. It was so delicious we just ate it without any bread or accompaniment. I didn't even have time to take a picture because it was all gone! Maybe next time. The actual recipe states to boil the potatoes first, but I just added them to the pan and let them cook in the pan with the other ingredients. I don't know if the version below is exactly the same as from the website, but it's how I made it.

Steps:
- 1) Peel and cut potatoes into small cubes.
- 2) Heat oil in pan.
- 3) Add cumin seeds, onion seeds, mustard seeds and asafoetida powder to pan and shake around until seeds start to crackle.
- 4) Add potatoes, turmeric powder, salt and green chilis. Mix well.
- 5) Lower heat to simmer and cover pan for about 18-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender. You may want to add a splash of water at this step if it's too dry for the potatoes to get cooked well.
- 6) Increase heat to high and stir. I let the potatoes brown a bit but you can skip this step.
- 7) Remove from heat and stir in chopped cilantro and lemon juice.
