NOTES:

  1. Potatoes:

      I prefer Red Potatoes, which cook tender quickly, though White Rose or similar can also be used. Red Potatoes may differ in other countries. For details see our Potatoes page.

  2. Thai Chilis:

      If very chili adverse, use just one. You could substitute 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Chili Flake, hotness per your own best judgement.
  3. U.S. measure: t=teaspoon, T=Tablespoon, c=cup, qt=quart, oz=ounce, #=pound, cl=clove in=inch ar=as required tt=to taste
