  • 3 tsp cumin seeds

  • Stir in the tomato paste and salt, and mix well.
  • Toss in the potatoes. Make sure they are well coated with the spice mixture.
  • Drizzle 3-4 tbsp of oil in a roasting tin/baking tray. Place the potatoes in a single layer. Pour over any spice mixture left in the pan for extra flavour. Drizzle 2-3 tbsp of oil on top.
  • Roast for 1 hour or until crispy on the outside. Depending on the size of the potatoes the time may differ*

*You will see the whole spices blackened/charred when the roasting time is up. Don’t worry its normal. The charred spices add to the flavour of the dish.
