Ingredients

• 4 medium potatoes
• 1 large onion
• 2 medium tomato
• 1 small green chili
• 1 inch ginger
• 2 tablespoons cooking oil
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder
• 2 teaspoons coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon garam masala
• 1 to taste salt
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
• 1 cup water

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes. Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, and green chili. Grate or mince the ginger.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds until they start to crackle and release their aroma.

Step 3

Add the chopped onion and sauté until they turn golden brown, about 5-6 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the grated ginger and green chili, and sauté for another 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

Add the chopped tomatoes into the pan and cook until they become soft and the oil begins to separate from the mixture, about 4-5 minutes.

Step 6

Mix in the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Stir well to combine the spices with the tomato mixture.

Step 7

Add the cubed potatoes to the pan, stir to coat them with the spice mixture, and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Pour in the water. Cover the pan with a lid, reduce the heat to low, and let the potatoes cook until they are tender, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally and check if more water is needed to prevent sticking.

Step 9

Once the potatoes are cooked and the curry reaches your desired consistency, stir in the garam masala.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 11

Serve hot with roti, naan, or rice.
