Category: Side Dish

Cuisine: American

Ready in 45 minutes

Ingredients

1 1/2 oz Ginger root peeled and

1 tb Vegetable oil

1 ts Salt (optional)

1/4 ts Cayenne pepper (to taste)

3 tb Water

3 Cloves garlic peeled

1/2 ts Turmeric

1 ts Fennel seed (optional)

1 lb Potatoes


Directions

Boil the potatoes in their jackets. Drain and allow to completely cool. (Can be done the night before.) Peel and cut into 1-inch cubes. Put the ginger, garlic, turmeric, water, salt, and cayenne into a blender or food processor. Blend until it becomes a paste. Heat the oil in a large non-stick or cast-iron pan over a medium flame. When it is hot, add the fennel seeds. Let them fry for a few seconds. Now put in the spice paste. (Careful -- it will spatter and spit.) Stir and fry for 2 minutes. Add the potato cubes. Fry, stirring continuously, over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes or until potatoes have a golden-brown crust.
