Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Oil
- 1/4 tsp Fenugreek Seeds
- 1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds
- 1/4 tsp Turmeric Powder
- 300 gm Potatoes Peeled & cut into long pieces, or square/small pieces as preferred
- 10-12 Garlic Cloves crushed or made into a paste
- 3 Dry Red Chilli optional
- 9-10 Black Pepper Powder
- Salt to taste
- Asafoetida powder / hing powder a pinch, optional
Instructions
- Heat a cast-iron griddle (tava) and add oil. Let the oil heat up.
- Once the oil is hot, add fenugreek seeds and roast them well. Then, add cumin seeds and roast them until fragrant.
- Add a little turmeric powder, then add the long-cut potatoes that have been washed and drained.
- On medium heat, saute the potatoes for 2-3 minutes, mixing them well. Continue to stir occasionally for about 5-7 minutes until they are well roasted. There's no need to cover them with a lid.
- Create a space in the centre of the pan where some oil remains. Add the crushed garlic cloves and saute them until they turn a light golden colour.
- If desired, add the dry red chillies.
- Mix all the ingredients together well on medium heat.
- Add the finely crushed black peppercorns and salt to taste.
- Saute everything together for another 2-3 minutes on medium heat.
- The dish is ready to be served.
- Tips: This recipe is very flavourful and doesn't require chilli powder or even the dried red chillies if you prefer; only the black pepper and salt are sufficient.
