Bombay Potatoes Using CANNED Potatoes! Are They Good?

- I absolutely love Indian food. It's comforting, cheap and really tasty. Bombay potatoes are no exception and are really easy to make, and only uses a few spices. I wanted to do a stripped down cheaper version of my already uploaded bombay potatoes recipe, and I am also using canned potatoes which hopefully works!
#bombaypotatoes #indianfood #cannedpotatoes
To make my bombay potatoes you will need:
►540g can of potatoes (sainsbury's 38p)
►1/2 a large red onion or 1 small
►2 tsp of ginger garlic paste
►1 green chilli
►1 tsp of ground coriander
►1/2 tsp of turmeric
►1/2 tsp of cumin seeds
►1 tsp of garam masala
►1 tsp of black mustard seeds
►A small bunch of fresh coriander
►Salt & oil for cooking

Yay I'm 1st😊
Congrats! I'll pin you to the top so you'll be the first comment forever 😂

Top tip. If you wash those potatoes a couple of times and soak in cold water for a couple of hours you actually minimise that tannick, tinned taste you get from the canning process and the potato tastes better imho like fresh almost 🎉
I'll try that out, as someone else said the same. Cheers
Also add salt 🧂 into the water
Also you could maybe pierce the spuds to let them absorb some of the sauce flavour.
In defense of the tinned spud beyond just the immediate price thing, I have an immune condition and my energy levels vary wildly day by day. Some days the effort of just washing or peeling a handful of potatoes is roughly equivalent to running five marathons with a rucksack on my back, any efficiencies and effort savings I can make are a godsend. (Probably sacrelige coming from an Irishman .)
Recipe looks absolutely lush mate, another banger.
That's a really good point, I'd never thought of that before. I'm also part Irish, albeit only about 9% but I'm claiming it anyway 🤣
Irish here too. 😉
Thanks for sharing this recipe Adam , I have had a tin of spuds in the cupboard since lockdown..lol finally I will get to use them
That's the beauty of canned food. Keeps forever
When you turn around and say "scuse you" to the pussycat.... priceless!
I love his little random chirps and cheeps 🤣
While in no way suggesting that it makes tinned potatoes cheaper than fresh, with high fuel costs, you need to factor that tinned potatoes don't take as long to cook.
Good old Sainsbury's Basics to the rescue! (Hubbards is just a re-branding - if you look on your receipt, some items still come up as Basics!)
I used to keep a couple of tinned baby new potatoes on hand for emergencies, and I found that a good rinse and soak reduced the flavour of the tin. I also used to steam them over a pan cooking something else.
We have an increasing popularity in one dish meals, which of course saves on fuel, but how about being one of the trailblazers for one ring meals?
It might even be a great justification for the purchase of a worktop induction ring.
That's a good point. They take less cooking. And they were still nice and firm after cooking as some brands I find can be a bit mushy
Loving the production quality recently.
Thanks buddy. As Mr beast says 'whatever videos you make, make small improvements each time'. I'm learning after effects for better things like transitions, titles and graphics. The ingredients screen was done on after effects
Another wonderful thing to try. I always have can potatoes on hand, never know when you might need them. Thank you
At 38p you can't go wrong. I should have costed it all up but the whole dish probably costs less than £2
Looks lovely my eldest would love these but my spice cupboard is empty now apart from a small bit of salt haha cant restock any of it until the food prices go down but i dont think thats going to happen anytime soon 😢 🤦used to love just making things n putting different mixtures of herbs n spices, so similar meals tasted different it was great for cheaper budget meals now food is boring for us nevermind at least the kids are still fed 👍
When you are able. Take £10 and visit your nearest Asian supermarket and get the spices from there. First because you get way more for less, plus they are better quality. I'd go for these as you can make all kinds of dishes with them. Turmeric, garam masala, ground coriander, cumin and a chilli powder. I hope things get better for you my friend, well all of us. Take care
Thanks Adam, always look forward to seeing your videos. 👍😁🏴
And I look forward to chatting to you all in the comments. It's my favourite part
Made this tonight but without the fresh coriander(out of stock) and it was great, we both enjoyed it. Added a bit more onions, tomatoes and a little passata(to loosen it) to make it more of a main - would have added a little cooked chicken breast as well but I forgot to defrost it. 😅
Some comments I spotted on tinned potatoes - I love them but I know some get a "taste" that they don't like. I find that the "premium" ones need just a couple of rinses with water and then can be used. The "cheaper" ones can be washed by hand, rinsed and then soaked for a few hours in water before you use them. I also cut them up into quarters or if you get a big one(there usually is) - cut into six chunks.
One or my favourite dishes . I haven't seen chilli seeds do a dance like that before 😂
Madness wasn't it 🤣
My lot are visiting outlaws for a few days and as I’ve already got a can of potatoes at the ready now I know what to do with them.
…thanks for your video…have a great week…..
No worries pal
Absolutely love Bombay potato 😋
I have all the ingredients to make this right now...I always have canned potatoes on hand because they are such an easy go to ingredient like you said.... this looks so fantastic 😍 😊😊thank you for sharing ❤️ 😊
❤Annie
Thanks Annie x
Nice recipe- they looked delicious 😋 brilliant money saving tips as usual 👍🏻I made Bombay potatoes as a main course last night .. not-so-pro tip: .. before you add the onions to the oil,add half a teaspoon of tumeric (if you have it) give the spuds a couple of minutes in the pan - then them aside and carry on with the onions etc.
Great idea
Nice, going to try out this recipe I'll give my spuds a little crush let the flavours in.
Absolutely, I just couldn't be arsed 🤣
Awesome Thumbnail
Fantastic idea, Nice one Adam matey,
Thanks buddy
These tinned recipes are a really good idea Adam, thanks for this one, loving these food hacks.
You're welcome pal
Agree. The tinned stuff is great. Made a few recipes Adam suggested with tins. One was a cream chicken pasta dish. Delish.
Oh that looks lovely. And the smell… Mmmm! Fair play for showing us that one Adam I’ll try that tomorrow with a chop maybe. 👍
It goes well as a side with all sorts, enjoy mate
Absolutely lovely Adam. Thank you.
Appreciate ya x
a nice mid week winter warmer
Thank you
You can make a similar dish but using frozen cauliflower (thaw it a bit first) brilliant. You can also add some baby spinach to either dish to get saag aloo and saag gobi or even aloo gobi, potato and cauliflower, great dishes and really cheap.
Absolutely 😁
Great recipe Adam! Looks delicious.
Thanks Tony!
Oh yeah they look so good thanks xxxx
These spuds look really nice Adam and years ago I could have devoured them but I’m afraid now I’d end up in the hospital A & E cos of the chilli and it’s not cos I don’t like it but it doesn’t like me. Guess I could make something similar minus the heat but then it wouldn’t be Bombay potatoes would it. It looks so good though. TFS. I don’t think we could get tinned spud under a couple of dollars, but then our cheapest little bag of potatoes is around $5 - $7. If we go for a drive we can pick them up (beautiful ones too) off the side of the road straight from the farmer $10 for 10 kilos so that’s not too bad I guess but this year I can’t drive anymore so that’s that for me lol. Have a great week, looking forward to your next video.
Thanks Pamela. Yes you could omit the chilli and maybe add some diced red or green pepper. Not traditional but would add a little crunch and sweetness
Thanks Adam, I love Indian food 🥘
If I ever decided to become vegetarian, I'd live off Indian food because it's so good for vegetarian dishes.
@@Adam_Garratt if I’m ever in your neck of the woods Adam, I’ll look you up 👍
Delicious, I love Bombay potatoes and I have some of those exact same spuds in my cupboard. Xx
For the price, they are actually really nice. I find sometimes they can be a bit watery, but these were firm
Scrumptilicious! 😋👍🏻
Thank you mate
I would eat it straight from the pan. Maybe a dollop of thick plain yogurt on top. Nice recipe.
I demolished the lot off camera in about 2 minutes flat 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt I bet! 😆
Yep, you are absolutely right, Adam. Coriander stalks have more flavour than the leaves. Hence, they are used during cooking and the leaves for a fresh hit at the end. Great recipe, and as you say, cheap as chips.
The stalks have a lovely flavour don't they
Great recipe fella, I love Bombay Potatoes myself and shall be trying this recipe in the week. Bless Moggs he was ready for a taster, next time eh 😊
Keep up the excellent work there catch you next time 🤗
He'd try everything if I let him. He absolutely loves cheese but cats are lactose intolerant so he's very limited. I did hear they can have babybel cheese though. All he thinks about is food 🤣
@Adam_Garratt Now that's funny you should mention cats and mini baby belle, my cat loves those little cheeses 🧀 He hasn't come to any harm by eating them 😉
I made this. It’s really good. Thank you 😊
My pleasure 😊
I’ve got to give these a try 👍🏼
Hope you like them Aunty
Appears very tasty.
Thank you mate.
I will have tomatoe salad with seasoned minced meat cooked in form of a bread. Like a 3 pound meat loaf.
Sounds lovely
Lovely stuff, 🍽️
Thank you
Great work Adam! 👏👍
Thanks mate
You know what mate spicy/Bombay/curried potatoes are bloody lovely I definitely enjoy that little meal. Never used canned potatoes but I will do today. Cheers bud 🍻
You're welcome pal
Amazing as always, you're a great chef. Fast, simple, delicious, and cheap which is great when you probably have rent every month. Potatoes are always great when you want to keep a meal cheap and easy. It's also nice that they so incredibly healthy that "Technically, the traditional white potato contains all the essential amino acids you need to build proteins, repair cells, and fight diseases. And eating just five of them a day would get you there." but it does follow that with "However, if you sustained on white potatoes alone, you would eventually run into vitamin and mineral deficiencies." So maybe add some fruit or something and you'll survive.
Potatoes really are a magical veg. Have you seen the film starring Matt Damon called the Martian? He survives on Mars on just potatoes awaiting rescue
Looks delicious
Thank you 😋
Thanks Sdam give this a go xx👍👍👍👍
You're welcome
I made this to accompany kebabs tonight. Absolutely outstanding and set to become a family favourite. Thanks, Adam.
Good to hear buddy!
that looks proper tasty
Thank you 😊
Fantastic 🎉
Thank you
Top Man Adam this is a fantastic way to make Bombay's
Thanks pal
@@Adam_Garratt You are welcome Buddy
I'm glad they still call them Bombay Potatoes.
Oh yeah, good point! Mumbai potatoes? 🤔
I love canned potatoes 😊
I used to hate them, but I'm developing a fondness for them recently
Great mate Cheers
You're welcome mate
Errr..... Mr. Garratt; a few minutes peeling potatoes costs as much as a few pounds of (raw) potatoes as one can.
'Air fry' (at the same time) all your 'roasted' veg. (work out the times) and serve.
The 'air fryer' also makes popcorn ( include a caramel recipe) and heats......
G'day Adam.
Bombay doors open.
Bombay potatoes away!
I love that terminology 'Stripped Down'.
It's better than gutted.
Reminds me of the line in Hunt for Red October.
'Stripped down and turn it into a flying gas can'....
Great use of the tinned tiny taters.
Bombing them is a fantastic idea using the basic but necessary spices and vegetables.
Was that the chilli seeds or the pepper seeds going surface to air. I find a quick pounding of the pepper stops it popping and also releases more flavour.
A very nice meal indeed.
A pat for Moggs.
Cheers Adam 👍🤤😀
It was the chilli seeds. The camera didn't pick up just how mental it was. They went Everywhere 🤣🤣
@@Adam_Garratt Occupational Hazzard!
I get that a lot stirftying Thai curry pastes. Green, red and yellow spatter everywhere and on me.
I think you know I'm a canned veg fan- I don't use that that often but it can be excellent with a bit of finessing like you've done here. We got so weird and snobby about tinned and even frozen veg at some point. Makes no sense!
It's strange isn't it. I mean tinned sweetcorn is what we all have when it's out of season and no one bats an eyelid. I love tinned carrots sometimes, I eat them out the tin like sweets 🤣
How do u find induction over gas? This is giving me ideas 4 din dins & adding red lentils. I love ur vibe & obviously ur recipes. The Aus govt r promising cuts in energy bills = oh yeah!😅
We can't get potatoes in cans in Australia. Not where I shop anyway... I guess I can make it with 'real' spuds. The recipe sounds lovely!
Yes, just par boil some new potatoes and follow the same steps. If you want a more authentic version, I do have a video on that from years ago
@@Adam_Garratt follow up comment: I found the other recipe you mentioned, thanks.
Plus, I did see canned spuds on a supermarket visit the other day...2 bucks! Not great value, that's for sure!
I think I'd only use the canned stiff if I had a sudden craving for Bombay potatoes and didn't have any in the pantry.
I actually prefer floury potatoes with bombay potatoes/saag aloo. I like the craggly kinda fried texture on the outside. You've got to use a non-stick pan though!
Crispy bits are the best bits 😋
Spice mix is spot on but I would use fresh spuds as the canned ones don't seem to soften up no matter how long you cook them. What do they put in them?
You could try slicing them in half and lightly scoring the flat side with a fork. Might help
Mate, your food is so much cheaper than what we pay in Australia. The same tin costs me A$2.00 (~UK1.04)
Thanks Adam for another great tasty recipe.. This cost of living carry on is getting ridiculous,but hey with your channel we got this... As Citizen Smith said "Power to the people"😁💪✊
Glad to be helping bud
The sputtering was caused by putting the ginger paste into hot oil. Ive done this myself.
It looks good Adam. Not sure if I would have that as a meal, but adding it chicken or beef, would be rather good
Yep some chicken on the side, maybe some roti. Or if veggie some steamed greens
Looks great but when I see the herb of the devil being used I replace it with parsley 😅
Haha are you one of the unfortunate ones where it tastes like soap? 🤣
Best description I've heard. I avoid it on meals out when I know. Cannot understand why it isn't *marked* like various allergens
Clean up on aisle 5😂. Thanks for you!
Honestly it was everywhere 🤣
@@Adam_Garratt 🤣🤣🤣
nice one mate i adapted it to sw friendly ...ie used water to fry lol...
wonderful it was awesome . you would get loads more subs with your own sw friendly recipes
What's sw?
slimming world mate x i reckon your channel would get some hits @@Adam_Garratt
Coriander tastes like soap to me can I use parsley instead?
Parsley would be good yep
Someone told me air frying tinned potatoes was good so I tried it and they were awful😄
I think it depends a lot on the quality of the spuds. I've had some foul tasting tinned potatoes 🤣
"We're all broke as shit." Yeah this guy gets it. Subscribe. 😅
Why did you change your name from Adam Eats to Adam Garratt?
Branding
The spitting occurred when you added in the garlic and ginger paste because oil and water don’t mix well.
Can I borrow your seal of stupidity...everyday?
This was going to be my comment to your video, then I got distracted by something in my house and wrote the other one in stead :p
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Not. Good! Sad. Menu 😂
Eh?
