CURRIED CUMIN POTATOES

Steps:

• Place whole potatoes into a saucepan with water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until just tender. Drain, and cut potatoes into quarters. Set aside to keep warm.
• Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Saute the cumin, turmeric, and curry powder for 1 minute. Add potatoes, and saute until toasted. Toss potatoes with sea salt, pepper and fresh cilantro, and serve hot.

CUMIN POTATOES

• Peel the potatoes and cut into 2cm cubes.
• Place on a baking tray and sprinkle with the cumin and plenty of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Pour the oil over and tumble the potatoes around until they are well covered.
• Bake in a preheated moderate to hot (350-400) oven until browned and crispy-about 30 minutes.

GRILLED SMASHED POTATOES WITH TOASTED CUMIN VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Put the cumin in a small skillet over low heat and toast, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not dark, 2 minutes. Remove to a bowl, add the olive oil, vinegar and salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Let sit at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld.
• Put the potatoes in a pot, cover with cold water, add 1 tablespoon of salt, bring to a boil and cook until a paring knife inserted meets with some resistance, about 8 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl.
• Heat a charcoal or gas grill to high.
• Using a potato masher, smash the potatoes, leaving them very chunky, and toss with the canola oil and some salt and pepper. Put the potatoes in a grill basket and grill, covered, tossing occasionally, until slightly charred and crisp in spots, about 6 minutes. Remove to a bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. Taste, season as necessary and toss again with the chopped parsley.
