Pickled Potatoes

Pickled Potatoes make a delicious side-dish or condiment to Indian meals, especially when served with hot parathas and yogurt! They can also be served with other types of flatbread, rice bowls, salads, or even with sandwiches! The mustard oil is key, giving the pickle that pungency that makes it so addictive, so we'd recommend avoiding any substitutions here! If you like it spicy, feel free to add an extra dried chili to your pickle oil.
