Aaloo Achar (Pickled Potatoes)


Ingredients:
700 grams of Potatoes (peeled)
Salt to taste
1 teaspoon Turmeric Powder (Pisi Haldi)
1 teaspoon Nigella Seeds (Kalonji)
1/2 cup Fresh Cilantro Leaves (Hara Dhania) [chopped]
2 Green Chillies (Hari Mirch) [finely sliced]
2 to 3 tablespoon Lemon Juice or Pickled Mango (Aam ka achar)

Instructions:
1) Dice the potatoes into 23mm (1/2 inch) cubes and cook them in only a little water (water that should evaporate by the time the potatoes are cooked) with salt, turmeric and nigella seeds. When the potatoes are almost cooked stir in fresh cilantro and green chillies.
2) Chop up any large pieces of lemon or pickled mango and mix in with the potatoes about a minute or so before taking them off the stove to serve.

Now let it cool for 2 minutes and Enjoy.
