Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper powder
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into small, evenly sized cubes to ensure they cook evenly.
Rinse the potato cubes in cold water to remove excess starch, then drain and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds until fragrant.
Add the potato cubes to the pan and stir to coat them in the oil and cumin seeds.
Sprinkle the salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and black pepper powder over the potatoes.
Stir well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the spices.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the pan with a lid. Allow the potatoes to cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
After 15 minutes, remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Fry the potatoes for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Remove the pan from the heat and garnish with fresh coriander leaves before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish or snack.
