Wash the tindoras thoroughly under running water. Drain the water and pat the tindoras dry with a clean cloth. Chop the extreme ends (head and the bottom part) and discard them. Chop them into vertically thin slices and set them aside.

Wash and peel the potatoes with the help of a slicer. Chop the potatoes too into vertically thin slices and immerse them in a bowl of water to avoid changing of colour of the potatoes.

Heat oil in a pan on a medium flame. Add mustard seeds and allow them to splutter. Once the mustard seeds stops spluttering, add cumin seeds and stir fry for half a minute till the seeds turn light brown. Add turmeric powder and immediately add the tindora and potato slices.

Mix well. Then add red chilli powder, coriander powder, garam masala and salt and mix well so that the veggies are well coated with the masala.

Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of water and cover the pan with a lid. Cook on a low to medium flame for 15-20 minutes or until it is cooked. Keep stirring once or twice in the middle by lifting the lid carefully.

If the tindoras and potatoes become tender and break easily without any effort, it means they are cooked. Switch off the flame._x000D_ _x000D_ Add chopped coriander leaves and combine together._x000D_ _x000D_ Serve tindora subzi hot with rotis or phulkas or steamed rice.
