Kokam Aloo
(Kokam Potatoes) Recipe

Origin: India Period: Traditional

This dish is based on a Marathi original, is very easy to make (and very tasty!).

Ingredients

8–10 small potatoes
4–5 pieces of kokam (mangosteen)
1 tbsp whole coriander seeds
5 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 tbsp red chilli powder
1/3 tbsp cumin seeds
2–3 tbsp oil
salt to taste

Kokam Aloo
(Kokam Potatoes) Preparation:

Method:

Begin by dry-frying the coriander and cumin in a pan. When the spices begin to colour and release their aroma transfer to a pestle and mortar or a coffee grinder along with the kokam and render to a fine powder. Mix with the other spices and the garlic in a bowl.

Meanwhile quarter the potatoes and place in boiling, salted, water. Cook until just soft and take out of the water. Drain and set aside. Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the spice blend. Fry for about a minute then add the potatoes. Fry for another five minutes (until the potatoes colour) then serve immediately.
