Ingredients

• 4 medium Potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Asafoetida (hing)
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves
• 2 Green chilies

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes, approximately 1/2 inch in size. Rinse them in cold water to remove excess starch and set aside.

Step 2

Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add mustard seeds. When they start to crackle, add cumin seeds and asafoetida.

Step 4

Add the sliced green chilies and sauté for about 30 seconds.

Step 5

Lower the heat slightly and immediately add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Stir quickly to prevent the spices from burning.

Step 6

Add the cubed potatoes to the pan and mix well to coat the potatoes with the spices evenly.

Step 7

Cover the pan with a lid and let the potatoes cook over low heat, stirring occasionally every few minutes, to ensure even cooking. Continue this process for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through.

Step 8

Once the potatoes are cooked, remove the lid and increase the flame to medium-high. Fry the potatoes uncovered for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they develop a nice golden-brown color.

Step 9

Turn off the heat and garnish with chopped fresh coriander leaves.

Step 10

Serve hot as a side dish or with Indian bread such as roti, paratha, or naan.
