Ingredients

 
Potatoes – 3 large (boiled and peeled)
 
Salt – to taste
 
Lime Juice – 1 tsp (or to taste)
 
Oil – 2 tbsp
 
Mustard Seeds – ½ tsp
 
Cumin Seeds – ½ tsp
 
Asofoetida (Hing) – pinch
 
Peanuts – ½ cup, coarsely ground
 
Sesame Seeds – 1 tbsp
 
Turmeric – 1/2 tsp
 
Green Chili – 1 to 2 (to taste), finely chopped
 
Curry Leaves – 1 sprig
 
Cilantro Leaves– 5 sprigs, chopped for garnishing

Directions

MAKING
1 Cut boiled potatoes into bite size cubes and keep them in a mixing bowl.
2 Sprinkle salt and lime juice on the potatoes and gently mix.
3 In a medium non-stick pan, heat oil.
4 Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds, allow them to splutter.
5 Add asofoetida, peanuts and sesame seeds.
6 Once the sesame seeds start to pop, add turmeric, green chili and curry leaves.
7 Add potatoes and gently mix until potatoes are evenly coated with the oil.
8 Cook on medium heat for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

SERVING
9 Garnish with chopped cilantro leaves and serve hot.


TIPS
If you have the time, allow boiled potatoes to cool completely before cutting them. This prevents the potatoes from breaking apart and getting mushy when you stir them.
This subzi is usually eaten with puri, an unleavened fried Indian bread, but also tastes great with chapattis.
