    List of Ingredients




    2 pound unpeeled baking (russet) potatoes

    2 teaspoons table salt or 4 teaspoons kosher salt

    3 tablespoons vegetable oil

    3 onions, chopped

    1 to 2 cloves garlic, mashed

    6 large eggs

    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black or white pepper

    1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric

    1 carrot, diced and steamed until tender

    1 cup green peas or 4 scallions, sliced

    1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley or cilantro

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350 F.

    Put the potatoes in a large pot and add enough cold water to cover by 1 inch. Add half the salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, until tender, about 25 minutes.

    Drain and cool the potatoes, then peel and return to the pot. Mash well, but don't overmix.

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over a medium flame. Add the onions and saute until lightly golden, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic and saute an additional minute. Set aside.

    One at a time, beat the eggs into the potatoes. Add the remaining salt, pepper and turmeric. Stir in the onions, carrot, peas and parsley.

    Generously oil a shallow 8-cup baking dish, such as an 8-inch square dish. Place the dish in the oven and heat until hot, about 3 minutes. Spoon the potato mixture into the dish and bake until golden and set, about 50 minutes. Serve warm.

    Makes 6 to 8 servings.
