Method

  1. 1

    Coarsely grind dried anardana seeds in a mortar — not to a fine powder.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tbsp oil. Add cumin — sizzle. Add asafoetida.

  3. 3

    Add potato cubes. Add turmeric, coriander powder and red chilli powder. Toss to coat.

  4. 4

    Add 1/4 cup water. Cover and cook on medium-low for 12 to 14 minutes until potatoes are completely tender.

  5. 5

    Uncover. Add ground anardana. Toss well.

  6. 6

    Cook on medium heat 3 to 4 minutes — the anardana provides a distinct fruity sourness unlike lemon or tamarind.

  7. 7

    Season with salt. Garnish with fresh coriander.
