It has been modified with the addition of Indian spices - cumin, coriander, and turmeric to infuse the dish with an aroma of warm spices. This savory dish is perfect to start the day and a great option for brunch. It's a crowd-pleaser, vegetarian, and gluten-free. The potatoes can also be replaced with sweet potatoes or zucchini for a healthier option.
