Potato side dish recipes please - preferably easy

Boil what you consider a suitable amount of potatoes for the number of people dining.

While the potatoes cool, whisk plain yoghurt or creme fraiche up with salt, pepper and a dash of lemon juice.

If you used new potatoes peel them after boiling, then whether the potatoes are new or old, cut them into cubes and mix into the yoghurt.

As chicken marsala is spicy, I would not add any spice to this mixture, unless you are certain everyone really likes hot dishes. Soured milk products are used in India to counteract too fiery a curry.

If everyone likes really hot food, you can add garlic and garam marsala to your potato side dish.

You can either serve it at room temperature or chilled from the fridge.
