Spicy, Sour And Sweet Potatoes

Here are the complete recipe for Spicy, Sour And Sweet Potatoes.

INGREDIENTS:

• 3 tbsp oil


• Pinch of asafoetida (hing)


• 1 whole red chilli


• 1 tsp cumin seeds


• 1 tsp mustard seeds


• 350 gm baby/miniature new potatoes


• 1 tsp coriander powder


• 1 tsp cumin powder


• One tsp turmeric powder


• One tsp chilli powder


• Half tsp Kashmiri chilli powder (optional)


• One tsp light brown sugar


• 1 tsp tamarind paste


• Half tsp garam masala


• Hot water, as needed


• Salt to taste

METHODS:

• Bring the oil to heat on high in a medium saucepan. When it’s hot, crackle the hing, mustard and cumin seeds and red chilli quickly and then toss in the potatoes.


• Stir the potatoes for a few seconds until well coated with the tempering. Now add the turmeric, chilli powders, coriander and cumin and mix through. Then add two cups of water, lower the heat to medium, cover and cook for 25 minutes until the potatoes are soft.


• Uncover and stir through the tamarind and sugar, then smash up a couple of the potatoes to thicken the curry, add salt to your taste and serve hot. You want enough curry in the pot to submerge the potatoes half way. Stir through the garam masala to finish.


• If you can, leave the curry to sit for 10-15 minutes before you serve it. In case the potatoes soak up too much of the curry for your liking, just add a dash more of hot water to loosen it.
