    Naked potatoes mixed in with a hearty sauce are fine.

    Though imo they should be brushed with oil and salt, then roasted (or airfried!) because boiled potatoes are boring lol

      Yeah, I’m of the opinion that you should only boil a potato if you intend to mash it. Otherwise, what are you even doing? There are faster and tastier ways to prepare it.

        You should boil them a bit in an alkaline water before roasting as well. It breaks down the surface into a starchy mess that crisps up wonderfully while they roast.

          I understand, but I don’t want crisp in my curry potatoes 😋

          I wonder which version is correct in japanese/Indian curry recipes? Not that it makes any preferrence wrong, tastes are personal.

          But I could’ve sworn one way is the traditional way and one isn’t… Oh well 🤣
