What size do you cut potatoes?  How much water do you add?

First cut potatoes in half lengthwise, then cut the halves in half lengthwise, then cut side to side, making cuts abt. 1/4 in. apart. For the water, add abt. 1.25 cups

I think this is good for people who think "Indian" equals "scarily spicy."  The flavor is spot on without being intimidating to heat-phobes.  That being said, I love spicy food and would probably add more chili powder or something.  Great recipe for using up whatcha got: I added mushrooms and broccoli that were itchin' to be consumed.  BP is right about flavor the next day, too.  A little meddlin' made a delicious difference!  thanks!

I love getting this at a restaurant in town, but I can't always get there. I made this last night and it turned out great. It was a lot easier than I expected. Plus for what I paid for the ingredients I get 3-4 meals instead of just one! I can't wait to get home to eat the leftovers tonight! I wish I would have brought them for lunch.

This turned out pretty good the first time I made it, but I have to say that you need to chop the potatoes up finer than it says... I would say to do what the comment says about cutting lengthwise, then again, then in 1/4" strips but then cut those pieces in half again because even with the smaller pieces mine definitely took longer than 15 minutes to get the potatoes tender!  It took more like 30 minutes for my version to get everything just right once I started simmering.  Also, watch out for the cinnamon stick... if you leave it in the whole time, it will give your dish a sweet overtone that you may not want.  I will discard the cinnamon stick after the first five minutes or so of cooking from now on.
