Indian Home Fries - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 medium potatoes
    4 tablespoons water
    2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
    4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon turmeric
    1 pinch ground red pepper
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 teaspoon fennel seed
    fresh cilantro (to garnish) or fresh parsley (to garnish)
Preparation
    In a large pot, cover potatoes with water and bring to a boil.
    Lower heat and simmer, covered, 30-35 minutes, until tender.
    Drain, cool slightly, and peel.
    Chop the potatoes into 1/2\" cubes.
    In a food processor, pulse the water, ginger, garlic, salt, turmeric, and red pepper until a paste is formed.
    In a large nonstick frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
    When hot, add the fennel and cook 30 seconds.
    Remove pan from the heat, stir in the spice paste, then cook 2 more minutes.
    Add the potatoes and stir to evenly coat them with the spice paste.
    Fry 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the potatoes have a golden brown crust.
    Sprinkle with cilantro or parsley to garnish.
    Serve and enjoy!
