Introduction

This recipe is both quick easy and very effective and is best made with waxy or new potatoes. I have only ever made it with fresh coriander as where we live we have a large Indian community and it is both very cheap and plentiful. Goes well with many dishes and takes about 1/2 an hour from start to finish. The chilli is optional as if you dont want spice it works well with or without.
