Categories     Indian

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 medium potatoes
6 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon cumin seed
1/2 teaspoon fennel seed
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Rinse off the potatoes, pierce the skin of each potato in a couple of places, and cook them on high in the microwave until tender.
  • Remove the potatoes from the microwave and let them cool for 30 minutes (or for several hours if you are not in a rush to use them).
  • When you are ready to make the potato curry, peel the potatoes and roughly dice them. Set aside.
  • In a large nonstick frying pan put the oil, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, and the fennel seeds.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat. When the mustard seeds have started popping for about 15 seconds, add the potatoes and turmeric.
  • Use a spatula to flip over the potatoes as they cook. Cook until you get quite a number of brown spots on the potatoes (about 8 minutes).
  • Sprinkle the cayenne powder and salt on the potatoes and cook and mix another minute or two.
  • Note: You can also make this into a wet curry by adding 1/2 cup water after you add the potatoes and turmeric. Keep adding water, 1/2 cup at a time, until you have reached the desired consistency. You may need to adjust the cayenne and salt amounts if making a wet curry. Another variation is to reduce the potatoes to 3 or 4 and add other vegetables such as carrots, peas, cauliflower and/or green beans.

Tips:

  • Use the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape well and won't disintegrate in the curry.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too many potatoes to the pan, they won't cook evenly. Cook them in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the potatoes until they're golden brown: This will give them a nice flavor and texture.
  • Use a good quality curry powder: The curry powder is the key to the flavor of this dish, so make sure you use a good quality one.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the spices: If you like your curry more or less spicy, feel free to adjust the amount of curry powder or chili peppers you use.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: This curry is delicious served with rice, naan, or roti.

Conclusion:

This simple potato curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover potatoes. With its simple ingredients and bold flavors, this curry is sure to become a favorite in your household.
