Jhatpat Aloo - quicky potatoes

Ingredients :
  1. Boiled potatoes : 2-3 large size
  2. Onions : 1 medium size
  3. Turmeric powder : 1/2 tsp
  4. Coriander(dhaniya) powder : 1/2 tsp
  5. Cumin(jeera) powder : 1/2 tsp
  6. Garam masala powder : 3/4 tsp ( optional)
  7. Salt to taste
  8. Oil :3-4 tsp
  9. cumin seeds : 1/2 tsp
  10. red chilli powder : 1/2 - 1 tsp or crushed green chillies
Ps: if cumin & coriander powder are not available separately , add the dhaniya - jeera powder.
Method:
  • Chop the potatoes fairly big sized than the regular size.Since the potatoes are already cooked , they tend to mash quickly.
  • Chop the onions either finely or length wise.
  • In a non stick wok , add 2-3 tsp of oil. Add cumin seeds and allow it to splutter.
  • Now add the chopped onions and fry it until it gets transparent. Add a pinch of salt while frying the onions to remove the water content in the onions quickly & helps in quick frying.
  • Add the remaining ingredients - turmeric , chilli powder, coriander ,cumin powder & salt . Also add the chopped potatoes. Now stir them until they get mixed well. Let the vegetable be stirred in low flame for about 3-5 min. ( Adding Garam Masala is optional)

  • Jhatpat aloo is ready to be served.
