Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Amchur (dried mango powder)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves (chopped)
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and boil them in salted water for 12-15 minutes or until tender. Drain and let them cool slightly.
Once cooled, peel the potatoes (optional) and slightly flatten each potato using the back of a spoon or your palm, being careful not to break them apart completely.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add the vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for about 30 seconds until aromatic.
Add the boiled and flattened potatoes to the pan in a single layer. Allow them to cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes on one side until golden and crispy.
Flip the potatoes gently and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side until crispy and golden.
Sprinkle the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt over the potatoes. Mix gently to coat the potatoes evenly with the spices.
Reduce the heat to low, and sprinkle the garam masala and amchur powder. Toss the potatoes one last time to ensure even seasoning.
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and serve hot as a side dish or snack.
