RECIPE FOR BOMBAY POTATOES RECIPES

Steps:

• Put the ginger, garlic and four tomatoes into a food processor and blitz until smooth. Set aside.
• Put the potatoes in a large saucepan. Cover with cold water and bring to a simmer over a medium heat. Cook for 8-10 mins, or until just tender. Drain and leave to steam dry.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onions and a large pinch of salt and fry for 15 mins, or until the onions are golden and sticky. Add the chillies, mustard seeds, ground coriander, turmeric, cumin and garam masala to the pan and fry for another 2 mins. Tip in the tomato mixture and bring to a gentle simmer, then carefully stir in the potatoes and remaining tomatoes. Season to taste. Gently simmer the Bombay potatoes for a few mins until everything is warmed through, then serve topped with the coriander.

Steps:

• 1. Peel the ginger and garlic, chop the tomatoes, then place in a blender and blitz until smooth. Chop the potatoes into 5cm chunks.
  2. Pour 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil into a large non-stick frying pan over a medium–high heat. Add the potatoes and cook for 10 minutes, or until golden, gently squishing them with a potato masher to increase the surface area and give you more crispy bits.
  3. Trim and roughly chop the spring onions, and deseed and finely slice the chilli (how much you use depends on how hot you like it!). Pick the coriander leaves and reserve, then finely chop the stalks.
  4. Add the cumin and mustard seeds to the pan and cook for 1 minute, until the cumin starts to darken. Add the spring onion, chilli and coriander stalks and cook for 2 minutes, then add the blitzed ginger mixture, the rest of the spices and a pinch of seasoning. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes, or until fragrant.
  5. Serve the crispy Bombay potatoes with dollops of yoghurt, and the coriander leaves scattered over.
