طريقة التحضير

  1. 1

    Boil the potatoes

    Boil the baby potatoes in salted water for 12 to 15 minutes until just tender. Drain, cool slightly and halve any large ones.

  2. 2

    Toast the sesame

    Dry roast the white sesame in a pan for 2 minutes until pale golden. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Crisp the potatoes

    Heat the oil in a wide pan, add the potatoes cut side down and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, turning, until golden and crisp.

  4. 4

    Add the spices

    Push the potatoes aside, add the cumin to the oil for 15 seconds, then add the turmeric, chilli powder, amchur and salt and toss to coat.

  5. 5

    Add the sesame

    Sprinkle in the toasted sesame and toss for 1 minute so it clings to the potatoes.

  6. 6

    Finish

    Switch off the heat, add the lime juice and coriander and serve hot.

نصيحة نيترا

Prick or halve the boiled potatoes before frying so the spices and sesame stick to the cut surface.
