Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Potatoes
- 1 large Onion
- 2 medium Tomato
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 1 inch Ginger
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 2 teaspoons Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes. Rinse thoroughly and set aside.
Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, garlic, and ginger.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for 30 seconds.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the garlic and ginger, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the tomatoes, turmeric powder, ground coriander, ground cumin, red chili powder, and salt. Cook until the tomatoes break down and the oil starts to separate, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the cubed potatoes to the pan and mix well to coat them evenly with the spice mixture.
Pour in the water and bring the curry to a boil. Then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the garam masala and let it cook for another 2 minutes.
Taste and adjust salt or spice levels as needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve hot with rice or flatbread.
