This is a recipe that my aunt makes … its really simple and is a perfect side dish… the potatoes are boiled then fried … this process is to make sure that the potatoes stay in shape and give it a really nice golden color …. you only need few ingredients to make it …you will need:
- 8 new potatoes (any small potato would do too)
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tb lemon juice
- 2 tb olive oil
- 2 tb coriander, finely chopped
- salt and pepper
Start by peeling the potatoes (you have to peel them, if you dont then you wont get the golden color ) … then place it in a pan with water and bring it to a boil … dont boil it until its totally cooked … just for 5 to 8 mins … the potatoes will finish cooking while frying …
While the potatoes are boiling … mix the minced garlic and lemon juice … then to it add the olive oil … and mix them all well ….
Then to the mix add the coriander …. then season it with salt and pepper … and set it aside …
After the potatoes have boiled for 5 to 8 mins.. strain it … then deep fry it until its golden in color …
Then place the potatoes in a bowl with a kitchen paper to remove all the excess oil …
Now add the garlic-coriander mixture to the potatoes and mix it all together …
And serve … its a perfect, simple side dish …
Enjoy

Hi Laila,
I love cilantro and grow it in my balcony garden every summer. I’m always looking for new recipes and this one sounds like a great side for grilled fish. I’ll try it as soon as my cilantro sprouts. Cheers! (And thanks for stopping by my blog!)
