Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 2 kg potatoes peeled and cut into medium chunks (4 lb 6 oz)
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • ½ tsp asafoetida (hing)*
  • 8-10 curry leaves
  • ½ bunch fresh coriander (cilantro) roughly chopped, to garnish (optional)
  • sea salt to taste optional

Instructions
 

  • Steam the potato in a steamer basket suspended over a saucepan of simmering water until tender.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and toast the cumin seeds until fragrant. Add a little water, if needed, to stop them from burning.
  • Add the remaining spices, followed by the steamed potato and mix gently to prevent the potatoes from breaking down.
  • Season to taste with salt and garnish with fresh coriander.

Notes

*TIP: Asafoetida
Also known as Hing, is a spice that is anti-inflammatory and contains antioxidants that help protect against chronic inflammation, heart disease, cancer and type 2 diabetes
