This makes the perfect accompaniment to any curry vegetarian or meat based. They are very easy to make, and the fresh flavours are very different when you do cook it yourself. Give it a go.

nice, but not overly immpressed
I made this for my brother but he doesnt like coriander so i did basil instead, and was just as good if not better
Humility Chicken I have 4 teenage step children, who are teaching me many things. One of them is how much I don’t know! I have found humility – that modest sense of my own importance – invaluable! Humility is a spiritual way of life, and it allows us to see others well, and kindly. One simple thing I don’t know about my step children is how spicy they like their food. When I cook for them, I invite their feedback, so I can learn what they like. It also helps me know how to teach them to cook, so they can be more independent. I baked skinless, bone-in chicken breasts with green cabbage, red onion, thyme, chicken stock, sea salt, and lemon juice. Everyone liked this. But … Son number 2, Nate, made the same, but used jalapeno instead of lemon. It was a significant improvement.Without humility, and a willingness to learn from those younger and less experienced in the kitchen, I would never have tasted this dish.Thus, “Humility Chicken.” for more information click http://holy-food.org/humility-chicken/
it made a great mess in my y fronts after eating IT LOL!
it made a mess in my pants but it tastes nice still but not the seconed time round
I love them they are great
Further to previous comment: improvement to cooking:
0. Pre-heat oven to gas 4 1. Par boil potatoes (simmer small chunks of potato for about 10 to 15 minutes). 2. Drain potatoes and sprinkle on salt for seasoning 3. Fry the spices for about 1 minute, stir continously so that spices do not stick to the pan and burn. 4. Add potatoes to the spice mixture and stir gently under low heat so that potatoes are well coated. 5. Stir in the diced tomatoes that have been seasoned with salt and pepper. 6. Put lid on the pan and transfer to preheated oven and cook for about 15 minutes.
Result: really delicioius, these small improvements make a much tastier dish.
Very tasty recipe . I felt that the sauce was rather thick and needed watering down; the potatoes lacked seasoning. At what stages in the cooking can one add water and seasoning?
Best bombay potatoes i have ever had deeeeelicious
its really very good!
A MUST to try .. absolutely yummy!!!
According to Pat Chapman in The New Curry Bible "The tomato and the potato were ignored by the Moghuls, Indian and British alike, until American missionaries brought them to India in the nineteenth century. Consequently, there are no traditional potato dishes. Fortunately, the potato is now fully accepted in India, but this explains why [Bombay Potato], which is now a curry-house classic, is yet another British restaurant invention."

It's one of my mum and dad's favourite dishes with a perfect corma or chicken curry made by me (i make the curry with a bit of help from dad)and they are even making it for friends
Very good veggie recipe ...I like some yoghurt on the side.
u cook th epotato first in skin leave to cool then peel and i thnk its up 2 u how much potatoe u add
how much potato? and do you cook it first? some of these recipes on here are missing vital instructions!
i saw the video: cut in 4 lengthwise and then in big cubes (each potato)
it does say parboiled potatoes, that means part-cooked, firm but not cooked all the way through!
The recipe says 6 potatoes. It also says peel them and parboil them whole and then chop into chunks.
Exactly! How much potato and do you cook it first and do you dice or chunk? What about onion?
Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
excellent with rice as a vegetarian meal
I substitute 1 tsp garam masala with half tsp garam masala and half tsp chaat powder(avail at all indian grocers). Also at the end , I add a little sugar. Altogether adds a lovely blend of tastes.
terrific idea,tastes fantastic!
yum! mum made some of these + they are soooo nice! excellent recipe! (:
This recipe is awesome i've made heaps. It is also nice with onions and mince. Also it does'nt take that long to cook which is great for when I come hope and need to whip up something easy and fresh. : )
