Cut each half into 1/8" thick slices. heat the oil in a large pan over a high heat. add the onion slices, cumin and mustard seeds and stir for a few minutes. add the crushed garlic and chiles, stir and fry for a minute then turn the heat down to low. Add the ginger,turmeric, chile powder and coriander and cook for 10 minutes add the diced potatoes and salt. Mix gently until the potato pieces are covered in oil and spices.
