Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    PROCEDURE:For cooking the potatoes---Add to a pressure cooker with enough water to cover the potatoes. Close the lid and pressure cook for 6 mins, let the pressure release naturally.

  2. 2

    Drain the potatoes for 5 mins. Brush them with olive oil on baking sheet, place potatoes and press with the potato masher to flatten.

  3. 3

    Sprinkle salt and pepper generously. Bake at 400 deg F (205 C) for 25 to 30 mins.

  4. 4

    Heat oil in a pan and add garlic. Saute on a low flame till the raw aroma goes. Be careful not to brown or burn the garlic.

  5. 5

    Add the minced onions and let them cook on a low flame. In the meanwhile, discard most of the water used to soak the chilies and grind the chilies with two tablespoons of water into a paste.

  6. 6

    Once the onions look like they are almost melting, add ground chilies, soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, sugar, salt and 1/4 cup water.

  7. 7

    Bring this to a boil and simmer till the sauce thickens. Oil should have separated, and there should be some oil floating on top.

  8. 8

    Switch off the flame and let it cool. Once the sauce has completely cooled down, transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 15 days.

  9. 9

    Take the potatoes off the baking dish and serve hot, dressed with garlic chilli schezwan sauce.
