Method
1. Heat the oil in a hot, lidded frying pan. Fry the cumin and mustard seeds for a min or so till they pop. Add the ginger, garlic and onion. Fry for another min. Add the turmeric, garam masala and chilli powder, if using. Cook for a min.
2. Turn the heat to low. Add the potatoes. Mix in half a mug of water, cover and cook for 10-15 mins or till the potatoes are tender. Stir often. Add a bit of water to stop them sticking to the pan as they cook, but not too much. They should be quite dry when you serve them.
3. Once they’re done, scatter some fresh coriander over the top and tuck in.
