 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1       tb           Vegetable oil
  2       ts           Cumin or mustard seeds
  2 1/2   c            Potatoes
                       -- cut into 3/4-inch pieces
  1       c            Shredded green cabbage
                       -- or up to twice as much
    1/2   ts           Cumin powder
  1 1/2   ts           Coriander powder
    1/2   ts           Turmeric powder
    1/2   ts           Red chili powder
  2       tb           Fresh cilantro, chopped
    3/4   ts           Lemon juice
    1/4   c            Tomatoes, chopped

 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.  Add cumin or mustard seeds.
 Cook until seeds turn golden brown (for cumin) or gray (for mustard) and
 release their aroma, about 1 minute.  Seeds will "pop" as they cook. Watch
 seeds closely to be sure they don't overcook.

 Add potatoes into the skillet.  Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and
 continue cooking for 15 minutes.  Stir occasionally to prevent the potato
 mixture from sticking to skillet.

 Add cabbage and continue cooking until vegetables are semi-tender. Add
 spices and stir to evenly coat vegetables.  Cook until vegetables are
 tender, about 10 minutes.  Stir in cilantro, lemon juice and tomatoes and
 serve immediately.

 Makes 2 to 3 servings
