Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, ginger, garlic, and green chili.
Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent.
Add ginger, garlic, and green chili, and sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they are soft and the oil starts to separate.
Stir in turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and cumin powder. Mix well.
Add the diced potatoes, chickpeas, and green peas to the pan. Stir to coat the vegetables with the spices.
Add 1 cup of water and salt to the pan. Mix well, cover, and let it simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Stir occasionally and check if more water is needed to prevent sticking.
Once the potatoes are cooked, add garam masala and mix thoroughly.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve hot with roti, paratha, or rice for a complete meal.
