Time 3h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds russet or Yukon Gold potatoes (about 3)
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons whole cumin seeds
2 teaspoons black mustard seeds
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Kosher salt
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a large pot; cover with water by 2 inches and bring to a boil. Reduce toa low boil and cook until just tender when pierced with a knife, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and let cool completely, 2 to 4 hours. Peel and cut into 3/4-inch cubes.
  • Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast iron or nonstick) over medium until shimmering. Add cumin, mustard, and sesame seeds; as soon as they begin to pop -- a matter of seconds -- add potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes.
