Steps
- 1Begin by peeling the potatoes and then proceed to cut them into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Place the cut potatoes in a bowl and ensure they are fully submerged in cold water.
- 2In a large, heavy skillet, toast the coconut over medium heat. Stir occasionally until it turns a golden color, which should take approximately 3 minutes. Once done, transfer the toasted coconut to a small bowl and proceed to clean the skillet. Next, in the same skillet, toast the cumin seeds over medium heat. Shake the skillet frequently to ensure even toasting. The seeds will become fragrant and slightly darker in color after about 30 seconds. Transfer them to another small bowl for later use while keeping the skillet reserved for future steps.
