Spiced Indian Potatoes




Source of Recipe


Source: Le Cordon Bleu Home Collection - Potatoes


List of Ingredients




1 pound small new potatoes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 onion, chopped

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

1 jalapeno chile, seeded and chopped

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro leaves



Recipe



Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Peel the thin skin from the potatoes and place them in a large saucepan of salted water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set aside.


Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then cook the onion for 2 minutes, or until translucent. Add the ginger root, tumeric, hot pepper, cumin and a pinch of salt and cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly.


Add the potatoes and toss them in the spices until well coated. Transfer to a baking dish, shaking any remaining spice mixture over the top. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until tender to the point of a sharp knife. Sprinkle with cilantro just before serving. Serve hot or cold with broiled meats and Indian dishes.
