Notes

I always choose firm and waxy potatoes to make this pickle. It gives a nice texture without making it mushy.
Cut potatoes into uniform pieces before boiling if they are big in size. This will ensure even boiling and give a consistent texture to the pickle.
Adjust red chili powder and other spices according to your taste preferences.
I toast the powdered spices slightly before adding. This gives a nice flavor to my pickle.
Allow the pickle to marinate for at least a day before serving. This will ensure proper blending of flavor and offer a strong taste.
