  3. Fry the ginger for about a minute, put to one side.
  4. Fry the onion until opaque not quite soft, then add the turmeric, mango powder, chili powder and cook together for 2 minutes. Combine the cumin, mustard seeds, sesimi seeds and cooked ginger with the spiced onion adding a little of the potato's salt water if needed to form a runny paste and add the garam masala.
  5. Add the potatoes to the fry pan mixture and stir gently until fully coated.
