Original recipe serves 6. Current scale: 1x.
I found this delicious recipe in the Margaret Fulton Cookbook. I didn't have any mustard seeds, so subbed a teaspoon of English mustard; and subbed a teaspoon of curry powder for the garam masala. We had it with a Thai red prawn curry and steamed rice, but it is often served as a main dish for vegetarian meals. Edited 16 December to include salt and paprika in ingredients.

Stir for a few minutes, sprinkle with about 1/2 cup of water, turn heat very low, cover and cook for 25-20 minutes or until potatoes are done.
Shake saucepan occasionally to prevent sticking.
