 Boil potatoes in jackets. When done, peel & cut into small pieces. In a


 suitable bowl, combine potatoes, tumeric, salt, ground sesame seeds, lime


 juice, half of the green coriander and water and mix thoroughly. In a small


 pan heat mustard oil until hot; add cumin seeds and red chilies. Fry them


 until brown and then add jalepeno pepper. Let it cook a minute or so. Pour


 it over potatoes in the bowl and mix them thoroughly; garnish with


 remaining green coriander leaves.
