- 2 tsp - Coriander powder
- ½ tsp - Coriander powder for potatoes
- ¼ tsp - Garam masala powder
- 1 tsp - Black pepper powder
- 2 tsp - Ghee
- ¼ cup - Fresh cream (or I use coconut milk) can adjust the quantity depending on how watery or dry you want your curry to be
- Fresh Coriander leaves - for masala + for garnishing
- Lime juice - from 1/2 lime (optional)
- Oil - For frying
- Salt - As per taste
Preparation:
- Wash potatoes with water, peel the skin and cut into big pieces. Put the pieces into a bowl of cold water. Set aside.
- Paste: Sauté roughly-cut onion, chopped ginger and garlic - until onion is translucent. Transfer it to a blender. To the same blender add cut tomatoes, green chilies and coriander leaves. Make it into paste and keep aside
Method:
- Heat one tablespoon of oil in a pan, add ¼ tsp of turmeric powder and ¼ tsp of red chilli powder to the oil, sauté for 10 seconds. Drain potato cubes, add it to the oil and roast. Half way through sprinkle bit of salt, continue roasting until potatoes are golden brown. Transfer the potatoes in to a bowl. Sprinkle ½ tsp of coriander powder and ¼ tsp of garam masala powder over the potatoes. Toss it around to coat the potatoes. Keep aside
- In the same pan, add 2 tsp of oil. When hot add cumin seeds.
- Once the seeds starts to sputter, add the thinly cut onion and sauté until the onions are translucent. May stir in pinch of salt & sugar to help the process.
- Now add the ground paste. Stir and cook the paste until the nice aroma comes and oil starts to collect to the sides.
- Mix-in the ghee.
- Add rest of the red chilli powder, turmeric powder, salt and coriander powder. Mix and stir for a 30 seconds
- Now add the roasted potatoes and mix to let the masala coat the potatoes.
- Depending on how dry or watery you want your gravy to be, add cream+ water or coconut milk + water. Mix everything well, reduce the flame, cover and simmer the gravy. Cook until the oil starts to float on top or collect to the sides. Gently stir the gravy in-between.
- Once done, turn off the flame. Add lemon juice. Mix well.
- Garnish it with coriander leaves and serve.
- Enjoy the potato curry with roti/chapati/pulkha or as a side dish for rice.
