Ingredients
- 1 lb Idaho potatoes about 3 potatoes
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 Tbsp cumin seeds
- 2-3 green chilies chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp Turmeric
- ½ tsp coriander powder
- ¼ tsp red chili powder more or less to taste
- ¼ tsp garam masala
- 2 Tbsp fresh coriander/cilantro
Instructions
- Rinse and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt from the outside. Fill a pot with water and add the potatoes. Bring the water to a boil and boil for about 30 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender (the timing will change based on the size of the potatoes).
- Remove the potatoes from the water and place them in the fridge for at least an hour, until cooled.
- Once cooled, remove the skin from the potatoes. Then cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan until it almost reaches its smoking point.
- Add the cumin and the green chilies. When the cumin seeds begin to pop, remove the pan from the fire.
- Add the cubed potatoes and the remaining seasonings. Saute for about 5 minutes or until the potatoes are coated in spices and are crispy on the outside.
- Sprinkle the fresh coriander on top of the potatoes and saute for another minute. Serve and enjoy!
