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.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 -3 potatoes, small cubes
1/2 teaspoon cumin seed
1/4 teaspoon caraway seeds (kalonji) or 1/4 teaspoon onion seeds (kalonji)
1/4 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 pinch asafoetida powder
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 chopped green chili pepper (I used Serrano pepper)
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon lemon juice

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.
