Steps In Making
- Heat oil in a pan. Now add raw peanuts and roast them for 3-4 minutes or until light golden brown in colour. Once done remove them in a bowl.
- In the same pan add cumin seeds, asafetida, dried red chilli and curry leaves. Sauté them for 15-20 seconds.
- Now add chopped boiled potatoes and cook them on medium heat for 4-5 minutes or until they get a light brown colour and a crispy texture.
- Further add salt, red chilli powder, black pepper powder, dry mango powder and mix well. Cook for 1 more minute. Once done let it cool down completely.
- In a large bowl add the cooked potatoes, roasted peanuts, pomegranate, mint leaves, fresh coriander and smooth beaten yoghurt. Mix till everything is well combined.
- Before serving sprinkle some roasted cumin powder and garnish it with mint leaves and pomegranate.
- Serve with paratha, biryani or pulao.
Recipe Notes
- No need to add the salt in the yoghurt as we have already added the spices while cooking the potatoes
- Peanuts and pomegranate will add a nice crunch and flavour to this recipe. Do not skip them.
- Beat the yoghurt until smooth before adding it to the rest of the ingredients.
