Ingredients
Baby potatoes - 300g
Oil - 5g
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp red chili powder (adjust to taste)
1 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp aamchur powder
1/4 tsp chaat masala
1 tsp mustard seeds
5-10 curry leaves
Salt to taste
Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish
Method
Step 1
Boil the baby potatoes until you can poke them with a fork easily (parboiled) (make sure not to overcook!). Drain and let them cool. Once cooled, peel them and prick them with a fork in a few places to allow the flavors to penetrate.
Step 2
Heat oil in a deep pan or skillet over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and then cumin seeds and let them splutter. Add curry leaves, and your tadka is now complete!
Step 3
Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for a minute until it turns fragrant.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and add turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, garam masala, aamchur, chaat masala and salt (be careful with salt, aamchur and chaat masalas are alreadya little tangy/salty). Mix well and sauté for a couple of minutes until the spices are well-roasted.
Step 5
Add the parboiled baby potatoes and gently coat them with the spice mixture. Cook for - minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes develop a slight crust.
Step 6
Pour some water and reduce the heat to low. Cover the pan and let the potatoes simmer for about - minutes, or until they absorb the flavors of the spices and the gravy thickens. (Make sure not to overcook the potatoes. We want them to have a little bite)
Step 7
Check for seasoning and adjust salt and spice levels if needed.
Step 8
Garnish generously with fresh cilantro leaves.
