Simple Potato Subzi

This is the simplest of it's kind and probably one of the quickest too. It takes about 20 mins in all (including preparation time). This is one of the favourites at home and I can eat this subzi every day!

Ingredients (for 4 people)
- 6 large potatoes, cut into small, thin squares (so that it gets cooked quickly). Unpeeled potatoes taste better.
- a pinch of turmeric
- Mustard seeds and Jeera
- Red Chilli Powder
- Chat Masala
- Salt to taste
- Oil for cooking.

Heat oil in a pan and put mustard seeds. Once it stops spluttering, add the jeera and turmeric. After a few seconds, add the chopped potatoes into the pan and stir once. Cover with a lid and leave for 5 minutes. Once the potatoes are slightly soft, add salt and red chilli powder and stir well. Allow it to cook for another 5 minutes. Once they are completely cooked, Sprinkle (generously) chat masala, mix well and switch off the stove. You may add chopped coriancer and curry leaves if you like. Serve hot with Chapatis / Phulkas.

If it's quite oily, you can even mix it with rice to make a quick fix Potato rice. :)
