Once potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and cut them into cubes and keep them aside.
How to make Potato Bhaji
Now, heat oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds. Once the mustard seeds begin to splutter then add the cumin seeds, asafoetida (hing), and also the curry leaves.
Give this a quick mix and then add in the onions, green chillies, and ginger and saute until the onions are translucent
When the onions are translucent, add turmeric along with the cubed potatoes. Mix well so that all the potato pieces are well coated with the spices.
Now cook for 4 to 5 minutes on a low flame. Finally, garnish with coriander leaves. Mix well.
Potato Bhaji for Chapati or Puri is done and ready to be served.
- Ginger is optional, I did not use it in this recipe. You could also add ginger-garlic paste if you like.
