Roopak's Aloo Jeera Masala Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 Medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced into cubes
• 2 Tablespoons oil (vegetable or mustard oil works well)

• 1 Teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 Teaspoon coriander powder
• 1/2 Teaspoon red chili powder (adjust according to taste)
• Salt to taste
• Chopped coriander leaves for garnish (optional)
• Lemon wedges for serving (optional)

Instructions:

• Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat.
• Once the oil is hot, add the cumin seeds. Let them splutter for a few seconds.
• Add the diced potatoes to the pan and toss them well in the oil and cumin seeds.
• Sprinkle turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt over the potatoes. Mix well until the potatoes are evenly coated with the spices.
• Cook the potatoes on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are cooked through and golden brown. This may take about 15-20 minutes.
• Once the potatoes are cooked, garnish with chopped coriander leaves if desired.
• Serve hot with chapatis, rice, or as a side dish with your meal. You can also squeeze some lemon juice over the potatoes before serving for added flavor.
