Instructions
In a pressure cooker, cook thoroughly washed baby potatoes in some water for 1 or 2 whistles. Once the pressure drops, open the lid of the pressure cooker and run the potatoes through cold water. Remove the peel off and set aside.
In a nonstick pan, heat oil. Add peeled baby potatoes. Cook n low or medium flame until they are golden browned in all places.
Keep tossing them over so that they are roasted equally. On low flame, add salt and red chilli powder. Toss the potatoes again until the chilli powder and salt are coated well. Remove from heat.
Serve hot as a side with rice! Goes very well with Sambar or Rasam or with plain rice and ghee :)
Notes
If baby potatoes are not available, regular potatoes can be used. Chop them up into 4 quarters.
Adjust spices as per needed.
Use cast iron pan for even cooking.
Since I used nonstick pan, 1 to 1.5tbsp of oil is more than enough. While using iron cast pans, more oil might be needed.
Toss the potatoes regularly to ensure even roasting.
