Spiced Cumin Potatoes
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds new potatoes, cut into 1/4 inch thick pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons cumin seed
  • 2 teaspoons ground turmeric
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 2 teaspoons coarse sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
1
Place whole potatoes into a saucepan filled with water, ensuring they are completely submerged.
2
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil and continue cooking until the potatoes reach an optimal level of doneness, still slightly firm in the center.
3
Drain the water from the saucepan and cut the cooked potatoes into manageable pieces, approximately one-quarter of their original size.
4
Transfer the prepared potato quarters to a designated warming area, where they will remain at a comfortable temperature until serving time.
5
In a large skillet with a suitable amount of oil, heat it over an elevated temperature.
6
Add the cumin, turmeric, and curry powder to the skillet and stir for a minute, allowing the spices to release their flavors.
7
Introduce the potatoes into the skillet and continue cooking until they develop a toasted appearance, giving them a satisfying crunch.
8
Sprinkle the potatoes with sea salt and pepper to taste, then toss them gently with fresh cilantro leaves.
9
Serve the potatoes immediately, hot and garnished with the added flavor of fresh cilantro.
