Drain, leave to cool, then peel.

Put the oil in a kadhai, and set over medium heat . When the oil is very hot, put in the cumin seeds, mustard seeds, fennel seeds and the sesame seeds. 
When the seeds begin to pop add tomato and salt stir well add all above dry powders mix and stir it again add coriander leaves. 
Add  boil potatoes, and stir-fry for about few minutes.

I prefer to cook without water , If you want you may add little water and cook. 

Avoid garnishing fresh coriander leaves on top because it's smell kill the actual tastes.
Add on spices only. 

Try to cook with tomato's released water it gives more flavor. 

Try same process with Plantains, Taro, Carrots ,sweet potatoes and Yam.
