Ingredients

• 500 grams Potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Mustard seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
• 1 inch Ginger
• 3 units Garlic cloves
• 2 units Green chilies
• 1 large Tomato
• 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves
• 1 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Begin by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into cubes, about 1-inch in size.

Step 2

Finely chop the garlic, ginger, and green chilies.

Step 3

Chop the tomato into small pieces.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin and mustard seeds. Allow them to splutter for about 30 seconds.

Step 5

Add the chopped garlic and ginger, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until the raw smell of garlic disappears.

Step 6

Add the green chilies and chopped tomato. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes become soft.

Step 7

Mix in the turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, and a very small pinch of salt (optional) for flavor.

Step 8

Add the cubed potatoes to the pan and stir well to coat them with the spices.

Step 9

Pour in 1 cup of water, stir again, and cover the pan with a lid. Cook on low heat for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.

Step 10

Once the potatoes are cooked, remove the lid, and sprinkle garam masala over the sabji. Mix well.

Step 11

Increase the heat to medium and cook for another 2-3 minutes until excess water evaporates and the dish reaches desired consistency.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves before serving.

Step 13

Serve the Low Sodium Aalu Ki Sabji hot, alongside chapati or rice.
