This recipe from Qutar is warm and comforting. It showcases some wonderful flavors too. Recipe comes from: Global Table Adventure. Ingredients:
2 lbs small gold potatoes |
1/4 cup vegetable oil |
1 tablespoon cumin seed |
1 onion, chopped |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1 teaspoon ground coriander |
1 teaspoon turmeric |
chili powder, to taste |
salt & pepper |
lemon juice, to taste (about 1 lemon, or set out slices as garnish) |
Directions:
1. Set a pot of potatoes to boil and cook until tender. Small golden potatoes will cook in about about 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, fry up those cumin seeds in some vegetable oil until fragrant and just beginning to color (30 seconds to a minute).
3. Toss on the onions and cook until “meltingly” soft and then stir in all the spices, salt, and pepper, sneak a taste and smile.
4. Halve or quarter your potatoes, as desired, and add to the onion mixture. Squeeze on a little lemon juice, as desired.
5. Toss until completely coated with golden, sweet spiced goodness. Serve hot with fresh lemon slices.
