Found this at http://masalamagic.blogspot.com/ and enjoyed it thoroughly.

Ingredients
4 Potatoes - Peeled and Washed
1 cup Green Peas (Fresh or Frozen is good)
2 tsp Red Chili Powder
1/2 tsp Turmeric Powder
1 tsp Coriander Powder
1 tsp Cumin Seeds
2 tbsp Clarified Butter
1 Salt to taste
Directions
  1. Peel, Wash and Chop the Potatoes into cubes.

  2. Recipe calls for a pressure cooker, but I just cooked the potatoes in a pyrex bowl covered with syran wrap in the microwave.

  3. Heat the clarified butter, then add the cumin seeds and the green peas.

  4. Add all the dry powders, mix well and saute for about a minute.

  5. Add the chopped potato cubes and salt, mix well.

  6. Close with the lid and cook the mixture on medium until heated thoroughly.

  7. Garnish with chopped Cilantro and serve hot.
