Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 10 fresh leaves Curry leaves
- 1 inch piece, minced Ginger
- 2 minced Green chilies
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup, chopped Fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes, about 1-inch in size, to ensure they cook evenly and quickly.
Heat the coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the cumin and mustard seeds to the pan.
Allow the seeds to crackle and pop, then add the curry leaves, minced ginger, and green chilies. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until the ginger is fragrant.
Add the diced potatoes to the pan, stirring well to coat them with the spices.
Sprinkle turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt over the potatoes. Stir everything together to mix the spices with the potatoes.
Pour in the water and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Cover the pan with a lid, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through and tender.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. The potatoes should be soft but not mushy.
Once the potatoes are cooked, remove the lid and increase the heat to medium to evaporate any excess water, if necessary. Stir gently to avoid breaking the potatoes.
Turn off the heat and add the lemon juice. Mix well.
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving for a burst of flavor.
