Coriander baby potatoes – quick snack / side, is my favourite of all the recipes, that I made during this week. Such a quick & easy recipe to make, with just few basic ingredients.

Actually, during the weekdays, I made this as an evening snack for my kids. I just started making without any proper recipe in my mind. Abruptly, found few baby potatoes in the basket and proceeded with whatever I felt like adding to make the snack tastier. Chose coriander as the main ingredient for the love I have for it. And here came this below recipe.

“Amma (Mom)! I want this for school lunch tomorrow, please Amma, pleeeease…”, this was my son’s request (rather demand), after eating the snack!! And my 2 daughters joined their voice too!! 🙂 Happy kids & Happy Mommy!!

Possible Alterations in this recipe, ‘Coriander Baby Potatoes’:

Replacing the onion powder with very finely chopped onions is one other option. But, you will have to sauté them fist for at least 2 mins before adding all other ingredients.
Instead of garlic powder you might finely chopped / minced fresh garlic.
Boiling the whole baby potatoes in a stove-top pressure cooker (or) an Instant pot pressure cooker will be the best option, when compared to that in sauce pan on stove-top.
