Baby Potato Roast

Two days back, when I went to buy vegetables, I picked up a packet of baby potatoes. Didn’t want a spicy dum aalu for dinner, so settled for a simple jeera tadke waali aalu 🙂

Ingredients:

• Baby potatoes
• Salt
• Turmeric powder
• Chilli powder
• Coriander powder
• Cumin seeds
• Sesame seeds
• Refined oil
• Curry leaves
• Coriander leaves
• Lime juice

Method:

• Wash the potatoes nicely using a scrubber till it is clean of all the mud particles.
• Parboil it in little salt water. Remove from stove and cool them.
• When they are cooled well, slice them into half or quarters depending on their size.
• Heat oil in a heavy iron kadhai and add the cumin and sesame seeds.
• Add curry leaves when they splutter. 
• Add the potato chunks and toss it gently.
• Add turmeric, chilli, coriander powder and mix. Now add salt.
• Roast it on medium to low flame till the potatoes turn nice golden and crispy.
• Add a teaspoon of lemon juice and garnish with finely chopped coriander leaves.
• Serve hot with phulkas or rice and dal.
