Curried Cumin Potatoes

So I'm not typically impressed with potatoes sauteed in a pan.  They lack flavor and inevitably need kecthup regardless of what's on them.

These however, wow!  A ton of flavor.  They were slightly on the salty side, but they also had a big curry flavor.  They were really good witht the Yogurt-Paprika Chicken with Lemon.

Will have again.
