This is an easy to make and delicious side dish. My wife was making Salmon the other night, we had potatoes in the pantry and a bunch of spices, so I threw these together quickly. Everyone loved them! I substituted liberally, and they still came out great. Substitutions are noted in parentheses below. Enjoy!

Ingredients

Cost per serving $0.52 view details
  • 5-6 Russet or other potatoes washed, striped (peeled leaving some of the skin on), and chopped in 2/3 inch cubes
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp Cumin Seeds (I used 1 tsp mustard seeds and 3/4 tsp ground cumin)
  • Pinch of asafoetida (don't have so I left out)
  • 3/4 tsp ground tumeric
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp mango powder (amchur) - I didn't use this
  • 1 tsp kosher salt

Directions

  1. Boil potatoes for 6-8 minutes until just softened
  2. Heat oil in a skillet or large sauce pan over medium. Add the cumin or mustard seeds (and asafoetida if you have it) and let them sizzle for 30 seconds.
  3. Add all the spices and the potatoes. Stir fry gently for 1-2 minutes. Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes. Uncover and stir for another 60 seconds before removing to serve. (You can just stir fry without covering but they may be a little dry)

    Very flavorful potato side dish.

      One of my favourites. But I always add amchur.
      When you prepare this next time just add amchur and see. It will give you a slight tangy taste and a real good flavour. Goes very well with breads and rice.
