Method

01 Boil the unpeeled potatoes for 10-15 minutes. Allow to cool and then peel and slice in half. If using new potatoes, there’s no need to peel them.

02 Heat a pan on a medium heat and add the oil. Tip in the cumin and mustard seeds.

03 When the seeds start to pop, add the asafoetida, garlic, tomatoes, chilli, cumin-coriander powder and turmeric powder and cook for 5 minutes.

04 Add the potatoes to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes.

05 Stir in the lemon juice and garnish with the chopped coriander just before serving.
