Punjabi-Style Potatoes
If you, like me, love the flavors of Indian food, then these potatoes will become your new favorite side dish! These potatoes make a wonderful side to a curry or dal, but also work well with classic roast chicken or even burgers!
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. canola oil or use vegetable oil
- 1 yellow onion finely diced
- 1 Tbsp. fresh ginger peeled and minced, or use 3/4 tsp. ground ginger
- 3 cloves garlic minced, about 1 1/2 tsp.
- 1 jalapeño pepper halved lengthwise, seeded (a grapefruit spoon works well), and finely diced
- 1 tsp. curry powder
- 1 tsp. garam masala
- 1/2 tomato chopped
- 1 1/2 lbs. red potatoes chopped
- 1/2 tsp. salt
Instructions
- Heat a lidded large heavy skillet over medium heat and add the oil.
- When it is hot, add the onions, and when they start to brown after about 5 minutes, add the ginger, garlic, jalapeño, curry powder, and garam masala.
- Cook it for 2 more minutes, then stir in the tomatoes.
- Add the potatoes and salt and stir to coat them. Add 1 cup of warm water, bring it to a boil, cover, and reduce the heat to simmer it for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Uncover and simmer it for 10 more minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed and the potatoes are very tender. Serve immediately.
