Steps

10mint

1

Pressure cook* or boil potatoes until they are well cooked. Once cool enough to handle, peel the skins and quarter each potato into 4 large pieces.
2

In a large bowl, toss the pieces in rice flour coating well, and keep aside.
3

In a large non-stick wok / kadai, heat the oil. Add asafoetida and cumin seeds. Once the seeds splutter, add the red chilli powder, turmeric powder and SALT to the oil.
4

Stir well so that all the spice powder including salt get cooked in oil.
5

Do this on a low flame so that none of the spices burn. Immediately, throw in the rice flour tossed potato chunks, stirring gently to coat with the spices and oil.
6

Cook them on a low flame until all the potato chunks get encrusted with spices, around 7-8 minutes, turning occasionally.
7

Garnish with finely chopped coriander.
