Default Ethnic (Indian) Cusine Recipe Search

I'd love to have a recipe for an Indian dish. I have no idea what it's called but was served it by an Indian family years ago. This was a potato dish, very fragrant with a slight yellow tinge (I'm thinking it must have been the curry?). The potatoes were probably new potatoes because they were small and perfectly round. It wasn't complex but the flavour was wonderful and it wasn't doused with butter or the things we routinely use to impart flavour to our spuds.

If anyone knows what this was, or knows of something similar, I'd love to have a recipe, please.

TIA,

WB

Hmm, Tia I think you are talking about "zeere ke aalo", though I am not sure about it. I may need some more description. With what thing were you served this dish? And were there any cumin seeds in it? If yes I would love to pass on the recipe to you.

Hi Shabs -- there were various meat dishes served along with the potatoes. I'm not sure what they were called. I just ate and asked no questions. The potatoes really appealed to me though. As I said they were perfectly round and slightly yellowed/golden in colour. I'd love any dish using potatoes you could share. I really like cumin seeds so I'm sure that would be very tasty.
