POTATO CURRY




Potato is a versatile vegetable that adds flavor and taste into any dish it is added to. I like potatoes and have shared plenty of recipes with potato in this blog. And today’s recipe is of a quick and easy potato curry that is flavourful, delicious and goes well with chapati, paratha, pashte or dosa.

Ingredients

2 potatoes skin peeled and cut into medium size cubes
1 onion finely chopped
2 tbsp oil
1 inch cinnamon stick
1 tsp cumin seeds

3 tomatoes deseeded and pureed
1 tsp lemon juice
¾ tsp salt (or to taste)
½ tsp red chili powder
¼ tsp turmeric powder

  • Add ginger and garlic paste and sauté for a few seconds till the raw smell goes.
  • Now add red chilli powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder and salt and mix well.
