Ingredients
 
 

  • 250 gram Potatoes
  • 3 Medium Tomatoes
  • ½ Teaspoon Black Mustard Seeds
  • ½ Teaspoon Cumin
  • A pinch Asafetida
  • ½ Teaspoon Turmeric Powder Haldi
  • ½ Teaspoon Chili Powder
  • ½ Teaspoon Coriander Powder Dhania Powder
  • ¼ Teaspoon Garam Masala
  • 1 Teaspoon Salt as per taste
  • 1 inch Ginger Adrak
  • 1-2 Green Chili cut into pieces
  • 5-6 Curry Leaves Curry Patta leaves
  • ¼ Teaspoon Fenugreek Leaves Kasuri Methi
  • 8-10 Coriander Hara Dhaniya
  • 1 Tablespoon Oil
  • 1.5 Cups Water

Instructions
 

  • Heat some oil in a small pressure cooker (optionally, you can also use a pan with a lid if you are using boiled potatoes).
  • Add Mustard seeds (Rai) to the cooker. When they start to crackle, add Cumin Seeds (Jeera). Fry the Cumin Seeds for a few seconds till they start to splutter.
  • Add a pinch of Asafoetida (Hing).
  • Turn the flame to low and add 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric Powder (Haldi), 1/2 Teaspoon Red Chilli Powder and 1/2 Teaspoon Coriander Powder (Dhania Powder). Make sure that the flame is low as these spices will otherwise get burnt in hot oil. Also add a pinch of Garam Masala.
  • Also add a few Curry Leaves (Curry Patta) along with finely chopped pieces of Ginger (Adrak) and Green Chilies (Hari Mirch).
  • Now add chopped pieces of Tomato or tomato puree.
  • Sauté till the tomato pieces become soft and you can see oil leaving the sides.
  • Add chopped potatoes (about one inch size) followed by 1 1/2 cup or 1 Glass of water. Mix well and cook till you get one whistle of pressure cooker. Allow some time to cool so that steam escapes from the pressure cooker and the lid can be safely opened.
  • Add 1/4 Teaspoon Dried Fenugreek Leaves (Kasuri Methi) and also garnish with fresh Coriander Leaves (Hara Dhaniya). Optionally a teaspoon of milk cream can be added to give a rich look to the curry. Aloo Tamatar Ki Sabzi is ready. Serve it hot with Roti, Paratha or Pooris.
