Servings: 6

Ingredients
- 6 medium potatoes (about 2 pounds)
- 1 cup thick yogurt
- 1 small red onion (chopped (about 2/3 cup))
- 1 serrano chili (chopped)
- 1/2 tsp ginger (grated)
- 1/2 tsp red chili powder (use 1/4 tsp if using cayenne)
- 2 tsp cumin (dry roasted and roughly ground)
- 2 tsp salt (or to taste)
- 1/4 tsp black pepper (ground)
- 1 large handful chopped cilantro
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes and toss them into a large pot. Fill the pot with enough water to cover the potatoes. Turn on the heat to high and let water come to a boil. When it boils, turn the heat down to medium and let cook for about 20 to 25 minutes until the potatoes are cooked through. Drain and let cool a few minutes.
- While the potatoes are cooling, measure out the yogurt into a large bowl. Add the ginger and salt. Stir making sure the ginger is mixed well. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
- Once the potatoes have cooled, cut them into 1/2 inch cubes and mix into the yogurt mixture.
