Peel the potatoes and cut them into even-sized cubes, approximately 1-inch pieces.
Finely chop the garlic cloves and ginger.
Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds to the hot oil and allow them to sizzle for a few seconds.
Add chopped garlic and ginger to the oil and sauté until golden and fragrant.
Add the turmeric powder and red chili powder, stirring quickly to blend with the oil and spices.
Immediately add the potato cubes, ensuring they are coated with the spice mixture.
Season the potatoes with salt and coriander powder, stirring well to combine.
Lower the heat, cover the pan with a lid, and allow the potatoes to cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove the lid and check if the potatoes are fork-tender. If not, cover again and cook for another 5 minutes.
Once the potatoes are cooked and slightly crispy on the outside, increase the heat to high and fry them for an additional 5 minutes to get a good texture.
Turn off the heat and garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish with your favorite meal or enjoy it as a main course with bread or rice.
