Ingredients

  • 6 medium potatoes
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp coriander powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • pinch asafoetida
  • salt
  • black pepper

Garnish

  • fried curry leaves or chopped coriander

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200C.
  • Peel potatoes and cut them into sizeable cubes. If using baby potatoes, simply halve them. If using larger potatoes, cut them into 1-1.5 inch cubes.
  • Bring water in a pot to a boil and add 2 tsp salt.
  • Add in the potatoes and cook for 10 minutes. Drain excess water.
  • Transfer to a bowl and add your spices. Cover with a lid and toss them until well combined. The potatoes should have a fluffy texture.
  • Add some olive oil to a baking tray and place the tray in the oven for 10 minutes for oil to heat up. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the tray.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through the cooking time. The potatoes should be golden brown and crispy on the outside when done.
  • Once out of the oven, sprinkle with crispy curry leaves. Enjoy!
