Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium red potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, finely chopped yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece, grated fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon ground chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons, chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Wash the red potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into small, bite-sized cubes, ensuring they cook evenly.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle and release their aroma for about 30 seconds.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the cubed potatoes to the skillet and stir to coat them with the onion, garlic, and ginger mixture.
Sprinkle the turmeric powder, ground coriander, ground cumin, ground chili powder, and salt over the potatoes. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Cover the skillet with a lid and allow the potatoes to cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook until the potatoes are tender and cooked through.
Once the potatoes are done, remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped cilantro and lemon juice. Stir gently to combine.
Serve the Whole30 Classic Potato Subji hot, either as a side dish or a main course.
