POTATOES IN A YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Boil the potatoes in salted water with their skins on until they are just tender, then drain and set aside.
• 2. Mix together yogurt, water, turmeric, chili powder, ground coriander, ground cumin, salt and sugar in a bowl. Set aside.
• 3. Heat the oil in a medium saucepan and add whole cumin seeds. cook for a minute or two.
• 4. Reduce the heat, stir in the yogurt mixture and cook for about 3 minutes over a medium heat. If you do not let it cool down enough the yogurt will curdle, this is fine but it ruins the texture.
• 5. Add the fresh coriander (cilantro), green chilies, and potatoes. Blend everything together and cook for a further 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

HERBED YOGURT MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with cold water and add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to a low simmer and cook the potatoes, uncovered, until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain.
• Peel the potatoes and return them to the pot (for smoother potatoes, pass them through a ricer or food mill after peeling). Mash the potatoes with the yogurt and butter using a fork or potato masher. Stir in most of the chives, dill, parsley, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with the reserved herbs.

POTATO/YOGURT SOUP

Steps:

• First peel and slice potatoes and rinse in cold water.
• Place potatoes in a heavy large pan and cover with water, just to cover.
• Boil until soft but not mushy.
• Pour about half of the water off of the potatoes, but save half, the starch that boils off the potatoes helps the soup to thicken and holds more nutrients.
• Add yogurt and spices and simmer 5-10 minutes to let the flavors mingle, and serve.
• I like a little shredded cheese in mine, Grew up with Cheddar, but like Mozzarella now.
