There are a few auspicious days during which mom and grandma don't add onion or garlic in the dishes. On one such day, when I was browsing through some recipes and I was so excited on finding this interesting combination of mint and baby potatoes :D Trust me, it is very simple and absolutely delicious (provided you like mint flavour! ) We has it with hot milagu (pepper) rasam rice. It could also be served as a starter.
INGREDIENTS:
BABY POTATOES - 20
MINT LEAVES - 1 FISTFUL
CORIANDER LEAVES - 1 FISTFUL
CUMIN SEEDS - 1/4 TSP
GREEN CHILLI - 1 NO
BLACK PEPPER POWDER - 1/4 TSP
KASTURI METHI - 1/2 TSP
SALT AS NEEDED
OIL - 2 TBLSP
METHOD:
• Boil the potatoes, peel the skin and prick them with a fork.
• Grind the mint leaves, coriander leaves and green chilies into a fine paste. Add salt to this and mix this with the boiled potatoes. Let this sit for 1/2 an hour in the refrigerator.
• In a pan, add oil and throw in the cumin seeds and when it crackles add the marinated potatoes.
• Fry until you see the golden spot on the potatoes.
• Add the pepper powder and the crushed kasuri methi to this and stir well.
• Enjoy with any rice. This can be had as a starter too.
