Ingredients

• 4 medium potatoes
• 1 medium onion
• 2 medium tomatoes
• 1 inch piece ginger
• 3 garlic cloves
• 1 green chili
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon garam masala
• 0.25 cup fresh coriander leaves
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 1 cup water

Directions

Step 1

Peel and cube the potatoes into approximately 1-inch pieces.

Step 2

Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, ginger, garlic, and green chili.

Step 3

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them splutter.

Step 4

Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.

Step 5

Stir in the ginger, garlic, and green chili, and sauté until the raw smell of garlic disappears.

Step 6

Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they soften and the oil starts to separate.

Step 7

Add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and garam masala. Mix well to incorporate the spices with the tomato mixture.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Pour in the water, cover the pan with a lid, and let it simmer on a low flame until the potatoes are cooked through and tender, approximately 15 minutes.

Step 10

Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the potatoes; they should be soft and not resistant.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves before serving.

Step 12

Serve the Aloo Sabzi hot with chapati, naan, or rice.
