Ingredients
- Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons
- Potatoes
- 2 pounds, cubed (yukon gold or russet)
- Curry powder
- 2 tablespoons
- Turmeric
- 1 teaspoon
- Cumin
- 1 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Fresh cilantro
- 1/4 cup, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed potatoes with the olive oil, curry powder, turmeric, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Toss well until the potatoes are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. This ensures even cooking and crispy edges.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through for uniform browning. They should be golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Once done, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the potatoes cool slightly before transferring them to a serving dish.
- Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro to add a pop of color and freshness.
- Serve hot as a delightful side dish to complement grilled meats, curries, or enjoy them as a standalone vegetarian delight.
Tips
- For an added kick, consider including a pinch of cayenne pepper or red chili flakes in the spice mix.
- You can also substitute sweet potatoes for a sweeter flavor profile.
- Pair these potatoes with a cooling yogurt sauce made by mixing plain yogurt with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of salt for a refreshing contrast.
