  • 1 1/2 tablespoons freshly grated gingerroot
  • 4 tablespoons chopped green chilies (such as serrano)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3/4 cup water

Directions

  1. 1
    Scrub the potatoes, quarter lengthwise, and thickly slice each quarter. Boil in salted water for 5 minutes, drain, and set aside.

  6. 6
    Add all the dry spices (from the turmeric through the salt) to the onions.
