Ingredients

• 500 grams potatoes
• 1 large onion
• 3 medium garlic cloves
• 1 inch fresh ginger
• 2 medium tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 250 milliliters water
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes and set aside in a bowl of water to prevent browning.

Step 2

Finely chop the onion. Mince the garlic and ginger. Dice the tomatoes.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds until they become aromatic.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic and ginger and cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 6

Add the diced tomatoes into the pan and cook until they soften and start to break down, about 5 minutes.

Step 7

Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt, stirring well to combine with the tomato mixture.

Step 8

Drain the potatoes and add them to the pan. Stir well to coat the potatoes with the spice mixture.

Step 9

Pour in the water, cover the pan with a lid, and let the curry simmer on low heat for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when poked with a fork.

Step 10

Once the potatoes are cooked, sprinkle garam masala on top and stir gently.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan.
