I don't think I've ever met anyone who did not like potatoes. You can't really go wrong with it. It's just one of those vegetables that you couldn't mess up if you tried. As for baby potatoes, my whole family loves it. My husband would finish his run a little early in the morning if he knew I was serving baby potatoes for lunch. The recipe here is quite straightforward. There's nothing complicated about it. And you will never have leftovers. Never.

Ingredients :

1. Baby potatoes - 1 pound (boiled and peeled)

2. Chilli powder - 1 tsp (I used Kashmiri variety but you could use regular if you like it hot. Stick to paprika if you like it mild)

3. Turmeric - 1 tsp

4. Salt to taste

5. Oil - 2 tbsp

6. *Tadka - 1 tsp each of

- mustard seeds

- cumin seeds

- broken urad dal

- fenugreek seeds

- asafoetida

- a sprig of curry leaves

* Tadka or tempering - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempering_(Spices)

Procedure :

1. Prepare the tadka. (Heat oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds. Let it splutter before adding the remaining ingredients. Watch for the urad dal to slightly brown which takes about a minute at most.)

2. Add the potatoes, red chilli powder, turmeric and salt. Roast it to a nice brown - about 10 mins.
