Mughlai Potatoes
Ingredients
Preparation
Start by boiling and peeling the potatoes. Heat oil in a pan and deep-fry the potatoes until they turn golden brown. For the cashew paste, soak cashews in hot milk for 10-15 minutes, then blend into a smooth paste. In the same pan, add celery, kasuri methi, asafoetida, and bay leaves to the remaining oil. Once the spices release their aroma, add chopped onions and sauté on low heat. After the onions are golden, mix in chopped ginger and garlic. In a separate cup, combine milk with red chili powder, turmeric, coriander powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper, then add this mixture to the pan. Incorporate chopped tomatoes and cook on low heat for another 5-10 minutes until the oil separates. Finally, add the cashew paste and fried potatoes, topping with crushed kasuri methi.
