Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 2 lb potatoes (waxy or semi-waxy)
- 2 medium onion thinly sliced
- 1 inch ginger finely chopped
- 4 tablespoon oil
- 1 sprig curry leaves
- 2 tablespoon cilantro
- Salt to taste
- ¼ cup water
Spices:
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon turmeric divided
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon garam masala (use store-bought or homemade garam masala)
- 1 teaspoon chili powder or cayenne
Instructions
Boiling the potatoes:
- Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into cubes.
- Place them in a large pot and add cold water to cover them by one inch. Add ½ teaspoon each of ground turmeric and salt.
- Place the pot on high heat and bring it to a boil.
- Simmer and boil for 7-8 minutes, until the potatoes are nearly done.
- Strain the potatoes using a colander and set them aside.
Frying the boiled potatoes:
- Heat oil in a large frying pan and add mustard seeds.
- Once they begin to crackle, add the curry leaves and ginger. Saute for one minute.
- Add the onions next. Saute until the onions begin to brown, about 4-5 minutes.
- Add salt and the remaining spices - ground coriander, ground cumin, garam masala, chili powder, and ½ teaspoon of ground turmeric.
- Add ¼ cup of water and mix well. Simmer and let the spices cook for about 2-3 minutes.
- It is important not to add more water as we want the onion masala to be dry and not have a saucy consistency.
- Add the boiled potatoes and mix gently. Let it cook for 4-5 minutes, to allow the potatoes to soak up the flavors.
- Turn off the heat. Garnish with cilantro and serve.

Notes
Parboiling the potatoes with turmeric gives them a beautiful golden hue.
Use waxy potatoes (and not floury) to make this dish. Floury potatoes are very starchy, which will fall apart and make the final dish mushy. A classic Bombay potatoes recipe uses Maris piper or King Edward potatoes. Semi-waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold potatoes also work very well.
It is important not to add more water as we want the onion masala to be dry and not have a saucy consistency. Add just a splash of water to prevent the spices from burning.
Baby potatoes can also be used to make these easy Bombay potatoes.
