Add spices and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add scallions and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and cook, stirring, until softened. Stir in hash browns and peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through and potatoes are golden and crisp in patches, about 10 minutes. Stir into shrimp.

INDIAN SPICED SWEET POTATOES

• Heat the clarified butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Add the coriander seeds, cumin seeds, mustard seeds, turmeric and curry leaves if using and shake the pan over the heat, taking care as the spices sizzle and pop. Remove from the heat once the spices become fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour over the sweet potatoes and fold in the cilantro and lime juice. Serve hot.;

INDIAN-SPICED POTATOES AND PEAS

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 cup plain yogurt, the zest of 1/2 lime and a pinch of salt; set aside. Cook 1/2 chopped red onion in 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon curry powder, 30 seconds. Add half a 28-ounce bag frozen hash-brown dices and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 12 minutes. Stir in 1 cup thawed frozen peas. Cook until warm, 1 to 2 minutes. Toss with 1/2 cup chopped cilantro. Drizzle with the yogurt.

INDIAN SPICED SPINACH WITH POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium heat. When it's hot, add in the mustard seeds. When they start popping, add in the cumin seeds, then the chile/red pepper flakes. Stir for a few seconds. ( I sometimes have trouble with getting my mustard seeds to pop. I always suspect that it has to do with their age, but I'm only guessing there. If they don't pop in a reasonable amount of time, I just proceed. It's never affected the flavor of the finished dish).
• Add the onion, garlic and green chile if you're using one. Stir fry these for 5 minutes, adjusting the heat down partway through the fry time.
• Add the potatoes and increase the heat a little. Stir fry for 5 minutes, then cover, turn the heat back down a bit, and cook for 4 minutes. I lift the lid and give them a quick stir halfway through this time. The potatoes and onion will be starting to brown at this point.
• Stir in the salt and spices. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan and continue to cook for 10 minutes. Give a quick stir after the first 5 minutes.
• Add the spinach and increase the heat. Stir in the spinach as it wilts, then cover pan again, reduce heat again and let cook for another 7 minutes.
• Remove the lid and test one of the potatoes, they should be cooked through at this point. (if not, recover and cook a bit longer) Reduce the heat a little and continue cooking to evaporate any remaining juices from the spinach. Stir frequently during this time to avoid sticking.

INDIAN SPICED POTATOES

• Add the cumin seeds, turmeric, ground coriander, garam malasa, salt, cloves, cardamoms, bay leaves, cinnamon stick, chopped chili and cook, stirring for about 5 minutes.
• Add the tomatoes and yoghurt, cover and cook very gently for 5 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked, adding a little water if necessary.

INDIAN SPICED CAULIFLOWER AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Toss cauliflower and potatoes together on a large baking sheet with about 3 tbsp of vegetable oil, cumin seeds and season with salt. Roast on the top rack in your oven for about 20 minutes, turning once, or until the cauliflower begins to brown, and the potatoes are tender. While the cauliflower and potatoes are roasting, cook the onion, garlic and ginger in a large skillet with the remaining 2 tbsp of vegetable oil over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the onions turn translucent. Add your spices: cumin, coriander, tumeric, cayenne and paprika and cook for approximately 2 minutes. Stir in water and bring to a boil. Add roast cauliflower and potatoes and cubed peppers. Cook covered for about 5 additional minutes. Turn off heat and add the sour cream, stirring gently to combine. Serve over steamed white or brown rice.
