Air Fried Panchphoran Aloo (Potatoes In Whole Spices)

I saw Nigella doing a pan-fried version of this and thought it would be worth doing a similar recipe for an air-fryer. I have chosen my own mix of spices; all the seeds are left whole for this.

If you don't have an airfryer this could just as easily be done as a pan-fried dish, probably reduce the size of the potato chunks and also reduce the cooking time slightly too.

Serving suggestions

We've served this with sausages, eggs and baked beans as a sort of spicy chip substitute but these will accompany most dishes perfectly.

Recipe source

• Based on a recipe I saw Nigella Lawson doing on her TV program.

Variations

We've used Car potatoes as they are in season and very good for air-frying; use your favourite potatoes or what is available. new potatoes or waxy are not ideal for this dish.
