Aloo fry/ potato masala




The recipe for this aloo fry is from my friend who is a great cook. I have also learnt a few North Indian recipes from her, but this one in particular is the one I make often, especially when I am pressed for time or crave something spicy.


Ingredients
Potatoes – 5-6 medium
Cumin seeds – 1 tsp
Kashmiri red chilli powder – 1 ½ tbs
Turmeric powder – ½ tsp
Coriander powder – 1 ½ tbs
Hing – pinch
Coriander leaves – finely chopped
Method
Peel and cut potato in cubes or wedges
Boil some water with salt and cook potatoes until just done (do not overcook)
In a kadai/pan, add oil and sputter cumin seeds.( be  generous with oil for this recipe)
Add all the spice powders and fry for a minute or so until the raw smell goes.
Add the cooked potatoes and fry for few minutes until well coated in the masalas.
Add salt if needed and garnish with coriander leaves
