I love potato too. And potato is must in pulav, chicken curry any veggies. What I like the most is it's ability to soak the gravy and be tasty. And like you said, just the boiled potato sprinkled with salt and chilly flakes is awesome.
There is a famous chutney recipe with boiled potato, green chilli and some more herbs. I love that very much.
But I am planning of changing my diet completely and cutting down some of my favourite for my health. ♥️☮️
