Dry Potatoes (Sookha Aloo)

Collection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • 4 medium size Potatoes
  • 2 teaspoon Cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 teaspoon Mango powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Hot pepper
  • 2 teaspoon Garam Masala
  • Oil (to fill pan to 2")

Directions

Boil potatoes until cooked but not overdone. Peel and cut into 1/2"
cubes.

Heat oil very hot, add and brown cumin seeds. Add potatoes and fry
until they are golden brown. Add the remaining ingredients, and fry for
2-3 minutes or more. Remove from oil with a slotted spoon.

Serve hot.

Tips: Use enough oil so that the potatoes will not need to be stirred
often. This avoids breaking them up.
