1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Place potatoes on cutting board and give them each one good whack with a meat mallet to crack them (or you could just prick them with a fork if you wish).
3

Mix lemon juice, wine, coriander, garam masala and sugar in a bowl.
6
Slowly whisk in remaining 1/2 cup of oil, whisking constantly to blend well and set aside.
7
When potatoes are near done, heat lemon and oil mixture in a skillet over medium heat, just to a low simmer.
8
Add the spinach and cook until just wilted, only a minute or two, and remove from heat.
9
Place the potatoes in a large bowl and smash them with a fork (and knife if necessary), breaking them apart into coarse pieces.
10
Sprinkle the red onion over the potatoes, then pour the spinach and vinaigrette mixture over the potatoes and toss thoroughly.
