Instructions
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes and Cook for 3 to 5 mins, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile coarsely crush the seeds in a grinder or mortar and pestle and chop the onion, garlic, ginger, chili by knife or a food processor.
- Transfer potatoes to a bowl. Heat a tsp of oil over medium heat. Wait till it's get hot. Add the crushed seeds and cook for half a minute.
- Add the onion, garlic, ginger chilie and cook for 3 mins or until translucent.
- Add the ground spices and mix in. Add tomato puree and cook for 3-4 mins to thicken.
- Add the potatoes, salt and water and cover and cook for 15 mins.
- Check and add more water if needed. Add the peas and half the cilantro and cover and cook until potatoes are tender to preference.
- Taste and adjust salt and flavor. Garnish with more cilantro, pepper flakes.
Notes
- To make this recipe oil-free, skip the first step. You could also use boiled potatoes instead of raw.
- Keep in mind that, as this dish sits the gravy will get thicker as the potatoes tend to absorb some of the liquid. When reheating, you might have to add a splash of water or broth.
- To make the gravy even more fragrant, sprinkle garam masala into the gravy towards the end.
- I also like to sprinkle some dried fenugreek leaves on top.
