Potatoes with asafetida and cumin from An Invitation to Indian Cooking (page 170) by Madhur Jaffrey

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Kheema with fried onions; Lamb with onions and mushrooms; Lamb with spinach; Shrimp with peas and parsley; Okra with onions; Stuffed whole okra; Fresh peas with ginger and Chinese parsley; Plain boiled rice; Chapati; Poori; Paratha

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Has become a favorite, though we always add a small onion, finely minced, to the oil before frying the spices.
