Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger. Dice the tomato.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds to the oil and let them sizzle for 30 seconds.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced tomato and cook until it softens and starts to break down, about 3–4 minutes.
Stir in the ground turmeric, ground cumin, ground coriander, red chili powder, and salt.
Add the diced potatoes and stir to coat them in the spice mixture.
Pour in 1/4 cup of water. Cover the pan and let the potatoes cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
