Note
For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of salt and black pepper to the potatoes while sautéing.
If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red chili powder or fresh chopped green chilies along with the onions.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet to maintain crispiness.
Baby new potatoes have thin skins and hold their shape well, making them ideal for this dish. If using larger potatoes, cut them into uniform 1-inch cubes.
