YES! This was the recipe... altho I couldn't find fresh 'coriander'...
the veggie man kept insisting that cilantro was the same. In the end I ended up getting the cilantro, but still not sure it was right. The ground coriander tastes 100% different from cilantro.
I used the fresh lemon generously, squirting a good amount between oven tossings. The only thing I would do differently is to double the garlic and add the cilantro the last 10 min. of baking -- I ended up with lots of very burnt crispy cilantro pieces. LOVE the lemon flavor with potatoes.
Batata bil Kizibra (Potatoes Coriander)
Recipe by Jonas & Haas.
Serves 4 as a side.
Ingredients:
1kg potatoes (I made this out to be 2.7 lbs.)
Juice of 2 lemons (plus more for basting with)
Pinch of red chilli flakes
Pinch of salt
Pinch of pepper
1 heaped teaspoon ground coriander
1/3 cup chopped coriander (I used cilantro)
1/3 cup chopped parsley
5-6 cloves of garlic, crushed (I would double this)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180’C – 200’C. (350-375 deg.)
2. Cube potatoes into 1cm cubes. Mix all ingredients (except cilantro/coriander) in a large bowl until potatoes are well coated.
3. Put in large baking dish, lined with baking paper, and space so potatoes are not too crowded.
4. Bake for 45min to 1 hour or until golden brown and a little crispy. (add cilantro/coriander last 10 min.)
5. To get the best results and crispier potatoes, turn them every 20 minutes and add a squeeze of lemon juice.
Note: You can also sprinkle in a pinch of citric acid to get very tangy results.
