Steps:
- Heat to oven to 450°F. Slice potatoes thinly to about 1/8-inch thickness using a mandolin or food processor. Pat the potato slices dry with a towel.
- In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper and the garam masala. In another small bowl, have the melted butter ready with a pastry brush. Have all your ingredients ready near your stove top.
- Heat an 8 or 9-inch oven-proof saute pan (or a well seasoned cast iron skillet) over medium heat. Spoon 2 1/2 tablespoons of butter into the pan and swirl to coat. Lay a layer of potatoes, slightly overlapping to cover the bottom of the pan in circular, concentric pattern. Brush with butter over and season with a pinch of the salt/pepper/spice mixture. Repeat adding layers of potatoes, butter and spice mixture until you've used all the potatoes. On top of the last layer of potatoes, brush with butter one last time. By this time, the bottom layer should be busy crisping.
- Carefully cover the pan tightly with a lid or tin foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 20 minutes, until the potatoes are beautifully browned and crisp on top and the potatoes are cooked through in the center. Remove from the oven. If necessary, use a spatula to loosen the edges and the bottom layer from the pan. If you want to serve the potatoes in the pan at the table, use a pizza cutter or pair of kitchen shears to cut into 6-8 triangular slices (like a pizza). Or you can invert your potato cake onto a large plate and serve upside down!

ALOO MASALA (SPICED POTATOES)
A little bowl of simply spiced half-mashed potatoes and onion, glistening with fat, is a standard side dish at bustling restaurants that serve dosas. It's also one of the best vegetable dishes - inexpensive, quick and delicious - to add to your repertoire as a home cook. The key to these potatoes is water, not fat. Overcooking them just slightly ensures that they're tender, and that they hold enough moisture so when you drop them into the hot pan, they break up and meld into the sautéed onion mix, becoming almost indistinguishable from it. Though aloo masala is great with a hot dosa, it's a versatile dish that can also work as a side with other meals.

Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to boil over high. Once the water boils, add the potatoes. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes, then drain in a colander.
- In a heavy pot, heat the oil over medium. Add the urad dal, cumin and mustard seeds, and fry until cumin seeds are browned and dal is crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the cashews, chile and ginger, and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the onion, salt and turmeric, and lower the heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent and tender but not browned, about 5 minutes.
- Tip the cooked potatoes, half the cilantro and 1/4 cup water into the pot, and stir well to coat. As you stir, let some of the potato get mashed. If the mixture seems dry, add a splash more of water. Cook over low, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are heated through, about 5 minutes, then season to taste with salt. Scrape into a serving dish; top with a generous squeeze of lemon and the remaining cilantro.
