Hey Everyone!!
If you're looking for a simple and delicious vegetable dish that’s ready in minutes, this quick potato stir-fry is perfect! With just a few ingredients—potatoes, onions, and spices—you can whip up a flavorful dish that works great as a side or a light meal.
Here’s how I make it:
Ingredients:
- Potatoes (small or large, depending on availability)
- Onion
- Green chili
- Spices of your choice (turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, etc.)
- Cumin seeds
- Cooking oil
Steps to Prepare:
1- Prepare the Potatoes
Chop the potatoes into long, thin slices. If you have small potatoes like I did, the slices may not be as long, but that’s fine—they’ll still taste great!
2- Prepare the Onion and Chili
Slice the onion and green chili into long, thin pieces.
3- Heat the Oil
Heat some oil in a pan. Once the oil is hot, add a few cumin seeds. Let them roast for a few seconds until they start to crackle and release their aroma.
4- Cook the Onions
Add the sliced onions to the pan and roast them until they turn golden brown. This step adds a rich, caramelized flavor to the dish.
5- Add Potatoes and Chili
Once the onions are roasted, add the sliced potatoes and green chili to the pan. Mix everything well.
6- Add Spices
Sprinkle your preferred spices over the potatoes. I usually use turmeric for color, red chili powder for heat, and a pinch of coriander powder for flavor. Mix everything thoroughly to coat the potatoes evenly with spices.
7- Cook Until Tender
Cover the pan with a lid and let the potatoes cook on low heat for about 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. You’ll know the dish is ready when the potatoes are soft and fully cooked.
8- Serve and Enjoy
Once done, transfer the stir-fry to a serving plate and enjoy it hot! It pairs wonderfully with roti, paratha, or even as a snack on its own.
This recipe is one of my go-to dishes when I want something quick, tasty, and comforting. It’s simple, versatile, and made with ingredients that are usually available at home.
