Ingredients

• 4 medium (about 2 lbs) Potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 1 large, finely chopped Onion
• 1 inch piece, grated Ginger
• 4 cloves, minced Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
• 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
• 1 medium, chopped Tomato
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 cup Water

Directions

Step 1

Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into bite-sized cubes. Place them in a bowl of water to prevent browning.

Step 2

In a large skillet or wok, heat coconut oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds, and sauté until they start to pop and sizzle.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the grated ginger and minced garlic, sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Drain the potatoes and add them to the skillet along with turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt. Stir well to coat the potatoes with the spices.

Step 7

Add the chopped tomato and water, stir to combine. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook on medium-low heat for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and the sauce has thickened.

Step 8

Once the potatoes are cooked, remove the lid and let any remaining moisture evaporate if necessary to achieve a thicker consistency.

Step 9

Garnish the sabji with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.

Step 10

Serve the Whole30 Aloo Sabji hot with cauliflower rice or a side of your choice.
