Ingredients:

500 gms small chat potatoes - boiled and peeled

3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil or ghee (tastes so much better with ghee)

3/4 tsp turmeric powder

1 heaped tsp cumin powder (roasted and then powdered)

2 heaped tsp coriander powder (roasted and then powdered)

1 heaped tsp fennel seeds (sonf)

1 tbsp lemon juice or to taste

1 tsp salt

1 to 2 green chillies – minced – adjust this to how hot you would like it

1/2 cup chopped fresh coriander

Method:

Gently press each potato between the palms of your hands, just till you feel the potatoes losing shape.

In a non-stick pan add the oil / ghee and potatoes. Now sprinkle all the rest of the ingredients over the potatoes - except the fresh coriander.

Cover and cook on a low heat for 10 minutes. Gently turn the potatoes and cook for another 10 minutes.

Place on a serving dish and sprinkle with the fresh coriander.

Serve with chapatti or lentils and rice.

Serves 4 to 6.
