Batata Harra ~ Lebanese Skillet Potatoes
Servings 4
Ingredients
- 400 gm potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 5 cloves of garlic pounded
- 1/4 cup loosely packed chopped coriander leaves
- 1 tbsp paprika powder
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Peel and chop the potatoes into small cubes. Add into a microwavable bowl, pour water in it and season. Cook in the microwave for 7 to 10 minutes.
- Take out and rest for five minutes. Drain and set aside. The potato should be cooked but not mushy.
- In a pan, heat the olive oil. Add the garlic and fry for a minute. Saute in the coriander leaves.
- Add the rest of the ingredients, toss well. Cook for around five minutes till the potatoes are mildly charred and looks well done.
- Serve hot as side to a dish of your choice!
Notes
You can alternatively boil the potato till done or roast in the oven till done, even though the latter option will take more time.
