Aloo Makallah — Crusty potatoes

THESE potatoes serve as an accompaniment to almost every Indian meal.

You can never make enough of them, so when cooking, use at least 4-5 per head! Ideally, use small potatoes and cook them whole; but if you use large ones, cut them in half or into quarters. Try not to use new-season potatoes, as you need a bit of starch.
