6 medium potatoes
3 tablespoon oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
2 cup water
1 cup plain yogurt
2/3 cup cooked peas
Peel potatoes and dice as evenly as possible. Heat oil and add spices when warm. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes, then add potatoes and stir well to coat with oil and spices. Continue for 5-10 minutes so potato cubes are slightly crisp. Add water, lower heat and simmer slowly for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender. Add yogurt and peas, heat for another 5 minutes and serve.
