  • 500 gram potatoes cut into wedges or cubes
  • 1/2 tspn methi/fenugreek seeds

  • 1 sprig curry leaf
  • 6 tbls light olive oil or vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Heat oil. Add fenugreek seeds, curry leaf and dry chilli. Fry for a minute
  • Add potatoes. Turn the heat to high until the potatoes start to sizzle.
  • Season with salt. Reduce to a low heat. Cover with a lid and allow it to cook until potatoes are soft. Remove the lid in the last 5 minutes and allow the potatoes to get crisp. Drain excess oil and serve.

Notes

  1. You can add a teaspoon of masala to the potatoes if you prefer
  2. To speed up the process you can also boil your potatoes until tender and then fry them as per recipe
  3. This really is a rustic dish so you can cut the potatoes however you wish
  4. I do not use onion in this dish because the onion does tend to burn
  5. Cooking time can also differ depending on the altitude and whether you pre-cook your potatoes or not
