Ingredients
- 750g Jersey Royals or mini potatoes, halved
- 6 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tbsp brown mustard seeds
- 30 fresh curry leaves
- 1 small red onion, finely diced
- 3 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 green finger chilli, finely chopped
- 4 corns on the cob, boiled then the kernels sliced from the cobs (or use 300g tinned or frozen sweetcorn)
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- juice of 1⁄2 lemon
For the ginger yogurt
- 100g root ginger
- 500ml Greek yogurt
To serve
- thin sev or Bombay mix
- fresh coriander leaves
Step by step
- Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6, or an air fryer to 200°C. Put the potatoes in a roasting tin and coat in half the oil. Season then roast in the oven for 40 minutes or cook in an air fryer for 20-30 minutes, shaking regularly.
- Next make the ginger yogurt. Peel and finely grate the ginger then place in a sieve and press with the back of a spoon until you have 30ml of ginger juice. Mix this through the yogurt, seasoning with a pinch of salt.
- Heat the remaining oil in a large non-stick pan over a medium heat. Add the cumin and mustard seeds until they begin to crackle and splutter. Immediately add the curry leaves and diced red onion. Stir for 3-4 minutes until translucent but not browned then add the garlic and chilli, stirring for an extra minute. Add the corn, turmeric, a generous pinch of salt and the roast potatoes. Stir in the lemon juice then set aside.
- Spread the yogurt over a large platter then top with the corn and potatoes. Scatter over the sev or Bombay mix and fresh coriander.
