Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C.
  2. Halve any larger potatoes to ensure they are all even sizes.
  3. Add the potatoes to a pan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then boil for 8 minutes, or until they’re tender when poked with a fork.
  4. Drain then put in a large mixing bowl. Coat in the oil, masala powder and a big pinch of salt.
  5. Transfer to a large parchment-lined baking tray. Roast, stirring once or twice, for 35 minutes, or until deeply golden.
  6. In the meantime, make the tamarind chutney by bringing 250ml water to the boil then adding the other tamarind chutney ingredients and lightly boiling away for 10-15 mins until syrupy.
  7. Make the green coriander chutney by blending all the ingredients along with some seasoning in a powerful blender until smooth.
  8. To assemble, spread the yogurt on the base of a serving platter before topping with the potatoes. Dollop over the green chutney and a generous drizzle of the tamarind chutney. Garnish with Bombay mix and pomegranate seeds.
