Instructions
 

  • Wash and cube the potatoes. Boil them in a pot of water for 7-8 minutes until slightly tender, then drain and set aside to cool.
  • Once the potatoes are cool, coat them evenly with the corn flour, red chili powder, Kashmiri chili powder, salt, and Kasuri Methi. This helps create a light crust when sautéed.

  • In the same pan, heat the oil. Add the cumin and mustard seeds. Once they splutter, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.
  • Add the ginger-garlic paste to the pan and sauté for a minute until fragrant. This step builds a flavorful base for the curry.
  • Stir in the tomato paste and the sautéed potatoes. Add a splash of water, cover the pan, and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

  • For extra depth of flavor, sauté the cumin and mustard seeds in oil until they begin to pop and release their aroma before adding the potatoes—this step enhances the curry’s overall fragrance and taste.
  • If you prefer a tangier curry, add a splash of tamarind pulp or squeeze fresh lemon juice into the finished dish to brighten the flavors and complement the spices.
  • To thicken the curry and create a silky texture, dissolve the corn flour in a small amount of water before stirring it into the sauce, ensuring it doesn’t clump.

Expert Tips

  • Adjust the spice level to your liking by adding more or fewer green chilies during cooking.
  • For a richer flavor, try using coconut milk instead of water for part of the liquid.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro or chopped cashews for added flavor and visual appeal.

Storage Instructions

  • Leftover curry can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; the flavors will deepen over time, making it even more delicious when reheated.
