Seasoning potatoes with cumin and smoked paprika makes this side dish irresistible. It’s the perfect dish to accompany your favorite breakfast scramble, sandwich, or a baby green salad.

To cook these potatoes to perfection, par cook the potatoes in boiling water, then toss them in oil and a spice mixture of cumin seed, fennel seed, some chile flakes for heat, garlic, and salt. As the seeds roast with the potatoes, their flavors intensify as they toast up.
